I'm in love with a Beast

I'm in love with a Beast

furry skin, fierce sight, fangs as sharp as knife.
A hideous beast frightens the night.

He growls all over the town.
The towns men are screaming "there's a beast in town!"
He screech with authority and empowerment.
Untamed and livid, that is how they perceived him. 

But, I see this beast differently.
Beyond his fierce sight, I saw a  window to his scared life.
Beyond his hideous physique,  I saw a tamed heart.
Beyond his screech, I heard a gentle voice inside.

Don't worry, I see your unchained heart.
entrapped in that furry beast, I see whom I love thou.

Wonderful poem, such a great reminder that we need to look deeper than the surface to find beauty.

[Briana O'Connor]

The expression of looking past appearance in this piece is very well expressed. I would suggest reading this poem out load to yourself. It doesn't flow quite smoothly. The words are beautiful but it reads more like a story at the moment. It does have great potential though and is still vivid extacy. Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work. Please return the favor by reviewing one of my pieces.
