A Poem by prettybretty

tell me I'm pretty like Jennifer Jones
tell me there is still strength in these bones
do I or do I not have a brittle heart?

somehow I still believe my life is a work of art
please tell me I'm Jennifer
just to ease my mind
though today I'd like to be Ida Lupino
standing in the moontide

[got 7 years bad luck when I looked the last time]

why do I act like a tragedienne
walking around in Nazimova's skin?

[Tarkovsky's mirror it don't compare to mine]

definitions...

does it really matter if I'm one-of-a-kind?
if everyone is special like each star in the night sky...
if I start to walk away, please don't leave me behind.
