Pretty?

A pretty girl, she always wanted to be

Her naturally butchered eyes bulged

Betrayed her deeply ingrained wish

To be a mirror’s friend, she wanted

All they did was frown upon her

She punished herself religiously

surrounding herself with mirrors

Screaming all day long at the face

This was no tragedy, a proud mother

Hiding behind her own demons

How could she be a safe haven

For such an abomination

Love and hate kept dueling

White powder and that bourbon

Emptiness filled her carcass

Years kept rolling on the wheels

Women of house they both were

Lost in their inner sanctum

There could be no recognition

Mind corrupted with reborn filth

Mechanized tubes filled with smoke

The mirrors were remnants of glass

The shards etched vertically

All across her fragile skin

all went right, she had let go

Of all the squalor, the mirror face

Mother had her final drunken stupor

She saw the girl, all colored

Sleeping so peacefully

Now she was finally pretty.

Jenny's Day In

Peeking behind the curtains
Dust stains reveal the perished
Jenny stays hungry, still waiting
She is bitter, lost in melancholy
Her soar throat cannot stretch
Tied to that last thread of hope
She decides to cut it herself
When will the bell ring, she wonders
While scratching and clawing
Her skin is almost thin
Bordering the sinew, she barks 
For that one last time
If only Tim could hear her
Sleeping with a rope around
His neck so fragile
The room would be his cemetery 
He made sure, Sorry Jenny.

A Puzzle of Calm

So for all the approaching infinities
Lets maintain that tiny speck
Of thin veil, that shroud of mystical aura
A firm and hopeful request
To deliberately hide that piece
Missing from the evolving puzzle
Let us never find a solution
For I'm afraid it could all slip
Carefully constructed mask of calm
For I'm petrified of the prospect
Of the curtain closing on the audience
Maybe lets take a dive into identity crisis
To keep slipping away from the abyss
Which is bustling with the undisclosed
Till this frozen lake thaws in time
That life is alive with new beginning.
