Untouchable Beauty

Untouchable beauty
so close and yet so far.
Skin as pale as ivory.
Hair as red as fire.
Eyes as black as coal.
The epitome of perfection.
Cuts criss-crossed
over ghostly arms--
long and deep,
bleeding continuously.
Heart as blue as the sky.
Mind as black as onyx.
Just what went wrong?
Why must this girl,
this radiant beauty,
be so dead inside?
It is you--
all you--
that has made her this way.
