Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level
When we are a bit of mess but still OK
Retrospect by Rosita Smedvik
No Rules Poetry Contest contest entry

What's my biggest fear ?
Is that you'll see me
The way I see myself

Wounds have left their scars
And scars have left their mark
I'm half flaws and half broken doll
Chaos and destruction
Topped with a mass of snarled ebony

My demons travel with me
And haunt me with each step
So much hidden in my heart
It has eaten me from within

But I didn't become this all on my own
This that lives between a shadow and a soul
But yet..

Maybe I'm cracked perfection
And a medley of damage
Maybe I'm the brightest of the dark
That only a few can see

I'm fluent in death
But that doesn't bother me
Cause maybe I wear the cruel scars
As a cloak to cover me
So alone I will never be

Author Notes
Poetry is not my wheelhouse but we don't grow if we dont try.
