    Vanities Crime

    What is a body that one should care?
    What is this vanity that we humans share?
    Why so concerned with our outter shell?
    When it is the soul and heart
    that make love swell.

    My body is broken, not lovely you see.
    scares of life now consume there
    place on me.
    But inside this frame, so damaged by time,
    lives a beauty that is beyond all
    vanities crime.

    There in that place where no eye can see,
    I am more then a body, I am simply just me...

    Some pains can never be softened nor ignored, but in your words here, it might be all who suffer less now. Thanx for sharing your thoughts...

    very well written. it shows us for who people in a whole really are. not all people but to many are shallow and concerned on whats on the out side not the inside. check some of mine?

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
