Self-Esteem Decayed

by Lost & Delirious   Jul 30, 2006


The spirit within feels deeply unloved,
As the frail body alone keeps standing.
Her own eyes are judging: "She'll never be loved."
Disgusted by the reflection staring.

Words keep pounding: "She's the one to blame."
"Not easy to love, she's tough, she's afraid".
Agonizing in her corner of shame,
Unreachable, her self-esteem decayed.

Ugly and broken, she rejects herself,
Craving for love, but nobody will dare,
To touch her thin skin that's harming itself,
Her foolish pain, no one deserves to share.

    Very effective poem. It pulls you in well for such a short poem.
    'Her fool pain, nobody deserves to share'

    Personally I think this would sound better as
    Her foolish pain, no one deserves to share.

    Lovely poem x

    Wow. I love it. It's very creative. It reminded me of myself, which made it so much more emotionally felt. I could really feel and grip the sadness of the poem.
