Who is that woman?

Who is that woman?

A Poem by Beck Louise
"

Like I said poetry is not my strong point but this is very personal.

"
Who is that woman I see?
She stares ever blank 
She wanders always aimlessly 
Only looking, never seeing

I am but a shadow to her
a passing flash
a glimpse of her past
Only there, never moving

Who is this woman they taunt
She cries ever more
She wanders, never knowing
Always scorned, never belonging

They are but shadows to her
passing flashes 
remaining in her past
only there, never moving

Who is that woman you see?
the bravest one you know
showing not any weakness
only strong, never crying

You are a light to her
Giving her strength
The wings beneath her
always there, never leaving

I really like this, it seems very deep and emotions, like your comment says, i can definitely tell this means something strong to you. I love the not quite repetition of the last lines in each stanza, they really just pull it together and give a final impact to each thought you throw out. really neat, I liked it :) (poetry isnt my strong point either but trying never hurts :)

This was really good. It feels really deep, and to me it could easily be a song.

I really like how the last lines in each stanza are very similar.. it adds a little something to the poem. :)
