VanityA Poem by Paula M. Potter
WE CLOAK OUR FLAWS IN BLANKET OF DENIAL * WE MUST NOT LET OTHERS SEE WHAT IS HIDDEN BENEATH * A GRAND ELUSION FOR ALL TO SEE * PRESENTED IN A BOW FOR THE UNIVERSE * KEEPING OUR FEELINGS CHAINED TO A STONE WALL DEEP IN OUR SOUL * PLACING OURSELVES UPON A THROWN * NOT LETTING OTHER SEE HOW ALONE WE’VE GROWN * JUST TO MAINTAIN AN IMAGE APPROVED FOR VIEW * BREAKING THROUGH THE WALLS OF OUR TOMB * STEPPING OUT OF OUR CHRYSALIS FRESH AND NEW * LET GO AND JUST BE YOU © 2008 Paula M. Potter |
