Flouted Fragments


Claws embedded she crawls
Through sinewy shadows
Grappling at the meaning
So demeaning to all she
Thought she was.

Laughter ricochets against
Still-born horror
How she wanted enchantment
Poisoned by the very dream
She was not.

Slowly fades away the day
Spittle flavoured with what-ifs
Dampens heart and hair
Twisting and turning
Writhing and wishing
She was

A flower upon a pedestal
Until he shot her down
Thorns buried deep now
Dead by the thoughts of
Everything she tried to
Be.

I am shocked Poe! This was so emotionally terrifying and sad. And what's scarier is that people feel this way very often. Man...shivers...wow... Excellent job.
