The obscurity

How something intrigues someone until they become to close, their perspective shifts.

Everyone thought it was weird but I found it beautiful

the way it was shaped

the way it moved

how it was like nothing I had ever seen before

But what was it?

I was unsure as was everyone else

but that didn't stop me from moving closer

step by step, the beauty intrigued me more so than before

Standing a few meters away the sun reflected off the beauty into my eye

I looked away in a hurry 

I turned back trying to the look at the beauty

it was mysterious 

My eyes widen, my breath hitched

I froze in place,

people eyes fixated on my body

it couldn't be what I thought 

the beauty was turning into something 

something I never wanted to glance at again

It looked back at me

eyes blinking in sync with mine

chest rising and falling

It turned away just as it did

It was just like me,

but this time

nothing was beautiful about it anymore

the curves, the lumps, the way its hair was placed

it disgusted me

I disgusted myself.
