i know what it's like for you....to have your beauty place on display...for everyone to see.....they don't stop to think of the hurt its causeing you.....they just want the beauty....they're hungry for it....and they will never see the hurt....b/c thats not what they want to see......this poem reminds me so mmuch of how helen of troy must have felt.....she was said to have made the most beautiful tapestrey....and she herself was the treasure of troy....maybe even the reason for war...or not.....the just needed a place to place the blame....but anyway.....she must have poured her soul into those tapestrys...and no one could see the pain they were putting her thorw only for there selfish greed of the need for beauty.....anyway....i feel so empty at the moment....we have so much to relate to.....tho my situation is a little more complex....i feel like i've grown away from myself again....but its ok...i'll make another life it isn't that hard.....
luv you beyond compare
