Forbidden Forest

Folder: 
random

Wandering the forbidden forest

She murmers cries for help

In the forest

Surrounded by tall dark shadows

Yet her

Herself

So white that when cut

Would bleed it

And nails so delicate

That even at the slightest touch

They would break

And her long frail hair

No more

Bald

Ugly

The forest reminds her of her past

Not a person in sight

Alone



The life she had before

No more

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A girl who died before her time, so shes stuck in limbo, until she can be set free to move on.

This girl is wandering this tragic afterlife that reflects on all the niglect she had faced in her life from everyone around her.
The forest is suppose to represent everyone around her (dark shadows) because really to her that was all they were. just figures around her with no meaning. the lack of information about everything because she was so secluded and solitary, she was unable to disifer what everyone was really about. what life was really about.

This is a really good poem!
It's simple, but still tells a story in a way.
It's very poetic. Nice Job!!
