She was beautiful but nobody saw her...

Burn Victim Haikus

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her soul

-Only her burned flesh

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her mind

-Only her body

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her heart

-Only her anger

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her dreams

-Only her vile life

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her hope

-Only her despair

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her light

-Only her darkness

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her grace

-Only her unease

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her smile

-Only her sad tears

She was beautiful

But nobody saw her fate

-Only her perils

And thus her beauty

Faded under her newly

Adopted eye view

Here's to the fools who

Couldn't see your beauty, but

-I'm looking at you...
