Untitled (Shape and Hue) *Revised*

Post by Jadynara » Thu Sep 16, 2010 6:15 pm

You made me flat and shaded
in a world of shape and hue.
You left me here degraded,
With this thing you chose to do.

Purple is a color you
splashed about my fragile face.
Forcing me to hide my true
nature, in my own disgrace.

Black and blue your palate for
pushing me toward the shades,
showing me my dull future
where the light has found delays.

Embracing weakened structure
my dimension slowly fades,
enduring daily torture
as resolve surely decays.

Here I lay flat and shaded,
in the world of shape and hue.
Where is the life unjaded
I was so accustomed to?

I'm having a rough time with this one. I'm not sure the imagery flows correctly or comes across right... any input?

Very good Meter and rhyme scheme Jady. Kind of depressing topic though. :cheers:

I've been having nightmares about when I was abused. The only way I have ever found to get them to stop is to write about it. So yeah, it's a depressing topic. Sorries. :shrug:
