1. Disappearing Act


    Date: 10/9/2015, Categories: Love Poems Author: TheScheherezadeFeint, Source: LushStories

    In love, in pain, a lonely pearl lending voice to song; twisted and bent, and not so slender. What can be done for a girl with self-image gone wrong, caged forever in blurry gender? Blank stare, hypnotic whorl, shattering passion, loud as a gong... Her hand raised as her only defender. Authoritative, humbling, governing churl, enemies gouged upon a vicious prong... Neither pain nor lust can bend her. In front of the mirror, lost in a curl, the notes of her sorrow are hardy and strong, yet black and blue, and very tender. Broken like glass, grown like burl she vanishes before the gathered throng; only her tongue she cannot hinder. Burst forth in lyric and dramatic twirl, who she once was erased, agony lifelong turned ashen, reduced to cinder.
