Beauty and the Beast
Her beauty I see
in full glory before me
but my eyes may only feast
for I am the Beast.
My eyes they do seek
but still I remain weak
So rejected
Always neglected
I wish she were mine
but my feelings are interwined
with feelings I can't explain
this only brings me pain
I stand in the shadows longing
feel she should be my belonging
I am loved the least
for I am the Beast

Again, thanks for the warm sentiments. English is not an easy language to master. It's way too complicated for it's own good. Keep at it though... I'm sure you will improve as time goes by.

Dear Beast you do dwell,
upon my meer shell
For the Beauty you can see
is not the real me
My heart has grown cold,
withered and old
Torn apart so many times
by other lives trying to own mine
I feel all your pain
yet i scorn you again
Surely happy you would not be
if you were with me?
I lie and I cheat,
my lifes so obsolete
Conforming to a view
that others demand me to do
If you were to take me far away
by your side i would stay
Away from others eyes
always prying and snide
Together we would be
so alive and so free
Forever in peace
Your internal Beauty and my internal Beast.
With love from Beauty.

Such a place doesn't exsist here... I'll play off this though. See my post "The Dream"
