BEAUTY BETRAYED



BEAUTY BETRAYED...
Lightning struck out!
Her body was shivering, shaking, clinging!!
Teeth momentarily clenching, desperately holding her life!!!
Tears rolled unheeded down her cheeks in the rain; unnoticed!!!!

Like a bespelled being, resolute was her stride,
Her heart ached, pain pumped in her bloodstream,
In her, the art of trust had worn out; it had outlived its purpose
No more did her cheeks blush to the sound of compliments,
Nor did manly figures, her heart make beat anymore!

It was a wild freedom she felt. A dark self-conviction.
A purpose to lead her life no more with males.
They had betrayed her.
Not once had she given herself to them; but many a time,
Always hoping, patiently praying, pleading…
Now it was a new day. Born from darkness, her light glistened!

Cupid had lost one more worthy soul
A heart too shattered to love had risen
She had vengeance in her eyes-for her years wasted,
Bitterness in her tongue-for words deceitfully used on her
Suspicion in every breath-for a trust recurrently betrayed!

Men had killed her, but she had resisted
Like evolved specie, she towered,
Even to the loyal, the well-intentioned, and the truthful;
Her heart had built a dark impenetrable defense.
She was gone, yet alive!
She was a betrayed beauty…..
