General

The pale longing on her visage belies,

A thousand expressions hidden inside corridors of her self,

An ocean of words flutter incessantly waiting to be shared,

Rumbling and grumbling, churning inside,

How does striking a conversation come easy to some people?

There may be known faces all around,

But, she’s all alone,

Always misunderstood,

In her writing realm, she is the queen of those unspoken words,

Write and write,

Thirst of words never to be quenched,

The sound of pen scratching on paper,

Is appreciation enough for her unfound friend.

I thought she was real, but she turned out to be a mannequin made out of fiberglass, actually durable high-impact molded plastic which makes her lightweight, and virtually unbreakable.  She comes fully dressed wearing top of the line makeup on her realistic face and this adult female fashion model also comes with a wig.  She is extremely flexible for different poses and she comes with adjustable fingers, and a rotating removable head that gives you the option for popping out her eyeballs to change their color, or make it seem like she is looking in another direction.  She could be a sex doll, if you are into that kind of thing, as she has lifelike genitals, but she is supposed to be used for window display, or to illustrate how certain clothing will look on you.  There is also an option for breast implants, which might work out well, if…

Welcome back!

I happened to be doing the sub-titles on a video, and in the process, I re-discovered the expressions of the speaker, and re-interpreted many words. Close observation is something we miss on a regular call.

Well, I had faces and expressions on mind, so here’s this week’s prompt.

When you look at me what do you see
Do you see the pain behind my smile
The wistfulness behind my beauty 
Can you see I want to speak my mind
But I am here just to adorn not to add
A beautiful woman who can look intelligent 
But no one asks her opinion or point of view 
Why have I become…

From the mercurial hands of fate
she reclaims her ifs and maybes
laces her shoes and packs a bag
whistles her favourite tune
while she hides a smile
because she knows
all next days
will be
hers

my gaze
off in the distance

my mind
in the land of wishes

my heart
beating with a flutter

my fear
never seeing you again
