NickelA Poem by jexPart 4 of the new Colors series. I owe the ending to Victoria PoetryBunny. Check her writing out, it's pretty amazing :) http://www.writerscafe.org/SomeBunnyLuvzU
She never knew life like others did,
Never felt like she had a home or a family, Never even felt like she was a human She was taken far far away from her home, Away from the trees and beautiful green grass And placed in a city of concrete giants, Harsh Days went by when she was alienated by those her age as well as her peers, Other days would occur when she became the target of their name calling and hurtful words, Where she withdrew and faded away into her loneliness Her pain and suffering would never cease, Until the day she took it all away In his last days, Her dad always remarked that she had the most beautiful eyes, "The most gorgeous use of a shade of Nickel as he had ever seen" Taking that literally more than figuratively, She disappeared, No trace and no note left Finally, One day, As the sun slowly rose over an empty home, A hiker discovered her body Resting peacefully, She made the long and perilous journey home Her refuge during her last days alive Her peers would say she died the same way she was born, Alone and unloved Though anyone who read her diary knew the truth, They knew who she meant, by "the one with fire in his eyes" And they knew that she died in suffering the same pain that her parents did A curse that ended with her death
