The girl and her veil

by tyler   May 22, 2012


The girl and her veil
lowered slowly to rest
by her loved ones and friends
a youth cut short
in the prime of her life
the mother now cries
and her father lets out a mournful sigh

no one understands why
"why would she take her own life?"
she seemed so happy
so full of joy
she would never cry

but deep down inside
there was a ghost she tried to hide
she said she was fine
she said her goodbyes
her note said dont worry
dont worry for me

a girl and her veil
slowly lowered in her grave
by her loved ones and friends
to short was her life
with a tragic end.

    I think the foundation is there and the feeling is really felt but its a hard subject to write about and write about well. Edit, edit and edit again. Some of the words are unecessary to get the thought across. Take out any words that are redundant. Also read the poem aloud, you can find flow better when you read aloud, in fact poetry was meant to be read aloud. Keep writing.
