A Story I Must Tell

Let me tell you a story about a girl who bleeds and writes of stories and poems containing broken rhymes.

Let me tell you her experiences; her nightmares and fears. How she endured all of it without shedding a single tear.

Let me tell you her personality; but wait, you wouldn’t understand. She’s a mystery inside an enigma and no one bothers to lend a hand.

Let me tell you how she brought forth life; a beautiful angel named Yzla. A seed of hope, beauty, and wonder; With divine wings, she flew into the heaven yonder.

Let me tell you her pain of losing Her firstborn, the alpha of her world. An empty cradle and an aching arms She lost her brightest hue.

Let me tell you how she succeeded with the thought of overcoming the agony but no, she actually didn’t until now she succumbs to a life unworthy.

Let me tell you how she lost her sanity, rhymes, and words. Her will to write and will to fight for everything blurs in a piercing dim.

Let me tell you a story about her, the maker of this piece oh wait, I’ve already told you read the poem again, please.
