Array ( [sid] => 61931 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A Looking-Glass Frustration [time] => 2004-08-30 15:12:36 [hometext] => It may not look it, but it is a love poem for my girlfriend Ami (deadbloodyrose). Feel encouraged to Comment. [bodytext] => The look of vanity
Caught up in insanity
When I peer into a mirror
A looking-glass frustration
A beauty compilation
Twisted features in the mirror, retching looks that bring fear
Scarring little children when I draw near

The look of insanity
I'm caught up in the vanity
As I gaze into the mirror
A morbid-looking face
An ugly, twisted disgrace
Haunting me unto the grace, I see myself in a different way
Something I can't see, the horrendous beauty in me

A twisted, broken self-image
I see myself
An ugly, wretched reflection
I send myself

And through the years as I grow old
A callous and SICK demention I hold
Tears through my heart and thus bleeds through...
A beautiful smile which captivated you

Then I begin to see
The beauty in me
I found it, it's true
The beauty in me is you [comments] => 2 [counter] => 201 [topic] => 2 [informant] => TheLastStringCut [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
