stress

she pleads for rest
as a wave of emotion crashes over her.
she drowns in it. struggling to escape she creates...................................scars

with depth too great to measure.
deeper than flesh. than bones. than the very soul itself.
she is too burried in lies that she ..................................................................can't

find any truth. cuts hurt
but not nearly as much as the harsh
discovery of the world she lives in. she tries to.........................................erase

the past unsuccessfully.
with nowhere to turn and
no place to hide, she finds herself lost in..................................................reality

Hello starlight

a very lovely well written poem
a very note worthy title
the only thing i might suggest is that instead of
having the one word way out to the side for readers to look for slow down the pace
and may even be forgotten its there.

otherwise your poem is great for some your age. you obviously have an inborn talent to be a great poet here

Scars can't erase reality

You dear young girl
are a wizard of creativity .
I couldn't even think
of what you do at your prime age .

But you have been badly hurt
and
creativity is at its utmost best
Hope your struggle
to overcome the past
bears fruit.

As a novice poet too
I adore you .
