Eye sight in reverse
Looking in is so much worse.
Beautiful but cursed.
Inside herself she sees the worst.
The life outside has no idea
What lies beneath the skin.
The only thing inside her is a
A heartbeat growing dim.
She has become a lock without a key.
A hidden shell that was lost at sea.
Taken by a storm and tossed astray.
Never spoken of untill today.
This poem is amazing Kasi! It is short but straight to the point and still allows the reader to feel the intensity of holding a secret. My internet has been shady for a while but I persisted so I could find a way of posting this comment. I love the poem though I think that the last two lines of the second verse were a little out of place and spoiled the flow and rhythm and also rhyme the poem has which is part of its beauty. If you could re-structure them to fit, i would love to read it again. Otherwise, fantastic and lovely poem, definitely my favorite of the week. All the best Laura

Thank you both :) I changed the part that you said and I think that I like it better now. I knew something was wrong with it but it was hard to figure out as I was writing it. I guess it just needed to be reread later. Thanks for the tip. I hope you like the new version.
