What Do You Think Of This Poem?
Faded Beauty
She was the prom queen,
Probably still is,
Probably always will be.
It reflects in her even now, in the state she’s in.
Her chipped nails,
Stained lipstick,
Brittle hair,
She wears it all as a shield from the world.
She keeps her shell around her;
She cannot be hurt again.
Her old photographs are barely recognizable,
But that was back when she was
Carefree,
Loving,
Confident.
Still, even after all these years you can detect the
Grace, strength, & beauty
That is no more.
Seeing her this way only makes her more beautiful.
It is sad to think she used to be
A movie star,
And now she’s just a fallen star

writing your
thougths down
like this does
not make them poetry
Words should flow like a waterfall, wasting not a single written word.

i think its really cool poem because your showing that she’s changed but its her deep inside it think it is a great poem to show that maybe beauty helps you but its the person within that really shines :]
