The Wake

A Poem by Rac7hel

Whirling around again I peel
My eyes apart so I can feel
The truth behind my stare.

Solemnly I seem to glare
Beyond what I believe is there
At what I fear is real.

I peel away the fast adhered,
The fallacy of what I'd feared,
The raw and bleeding truth revealed,
and beauty there appears.

Wow, a very moving piece of work, quite amazing. And very well written, indeed! :D
Favorite lines:
"The truth behind my stare"
The first three lines are what made me want to continue reading. You definitely caught my attention!
"The raw and beeding truth revealed,
And beauty there appears,"
Amazing ending! Fantastic really! Keep up the good writing!
