Wilted passions, frozen dreams,
Masked in the sizzling shadow of,
A fearsome beauty, hazel streaks,
Withering within, smiles above!
Compelled to fleeting false glamour
Falling prey to people so vain,
Feeling like a sun and soil Goddess,
Not feeling the pain within!
Abrasive words dying in a heartbeat,
Rude insolent childish manner,
Wanting more than she ever needs,
Good hearts, loved ones all scatter...
Alone, beautiful, wild and sad,
Tantrums of a rich ignorant feline,
Heart bleeding deep, earthy red,
Beauty bewitiching, skin deep divine!
Written for MindLoveMisery's Mercury and Ashes!

Her masked self is probably... I dint think shes happy either... but she dosent feel her own pain either... I dint really know how to xpress dat..
DeleteThis is a lovely portrait of the image Arushi. I thought you delved into her character in very vivid terms.I loved the line 'Tantrums of the rich ignorant feline'. This is one of the best i have read of yours Arushi, well done.
