I See Through You…

jacquelineobyikocha

person, eyes, woman, face

The veil before my eyes are torn,
now, I truly see your colours in high definition.

The thing is that you never hid them,
‘cos you let them show.

The fault is all mine,
‘cos I spent ages repainting you,

with the hope that my dabs of love
would soften the horridness,

but no amount of glitter I place on you
can hide your ugly sides;

now, I withdraw my paintbox,
I’m done with you.

The Daily Post – Torn

A wordsmith with a vivid imagination, an eager mind and a burning desire to carve out tales. As I journey with my muse to that land of all possibilities and self discovery, I hope my personal evolution will serve as a beacon of inspiration for anyone who chooses to stop by.

  4. No matter how much glitter i paint on you….. you that so true. Sometimes we have to conclude that is their part to play in the world and keep our peace of mind.

    Jacqueline, wishing you and your family a beautiful Christmas and happy new year. Regards bella
