BEAUTY

What night passes on Beauties face?
What scorned life that passes holds a trace?
What love was found and then erased?
The light distills beyond this place.
What magnitude of rich devours the poor?
What life is left of distempered form?
What angry passion burns inside?
What forgotten love does this beauty hide,
where hurt and pain bring an angry lie?
Alone in her soul the memories cry.
What ingenuity and grace now abandoned?
She walks alone herself fiercely reprimanded.
Dare she love twice and hurt again?
Dare she look deep within?
Her elegance puzzling the world she leaves
because, deep in her soul the pain still seethes.

I am sure you have heard it all too often...but it is true for most. It is always better to love than never loving at all. Pain sometimes brings out the best in our expression. Thus, this excellent write.

sometimes the pain of loving someone isn't worth the effort to try to bring out the beauty within their hearts, because there simply isn't any ...

well written ... the emotion in this poem is strong indeed ...

Love is such a fragile step within this life, though it is the greatest sensation within soul and mind, it is the broken heart that finds the difficulty to try and try again, so many have found themselves within the same emotion of your poem and yet so many still have faith to seek and try at love again...

a nice work of this thought within poetic verse...

nice work.....Art Sun...

Wow...I was thinking about this exact topic all day long...is it okay to try again? Frightening for sure. This is a wonderful piece. Thanks for speaking for those of us who couldn't put that intense feeling into words. Abigail

Your poem makes me realize where I am coming from right now. I totally feel what you wrote. Is it okay to say that? I sure hope so because you did, Crissy. Love (and peace too), to you,

Beauty is much more than what is on the surface. This poem displays the inner torment very well.

This poem makes one think and think again. A very accomplished piece of writing that grabs you from the first word.

This poem breathes and lives and questions the validity of loving again when love turns out to have such a heavy pricetag. Well done.

You are such a truth teller, Crissy. This work does not beat around the bush at all, it strikes at the target. Great job.
