Such a tiny creation, transparent yet beautiful in her overall magnificence, <br />She refracts light with seasoned expertise, glistening with radiance, she draws sorrowful, unexpected observance, <br />She glides, sensually over the creases and imperfections lower, still lower until she has fallen, <br />Staining streaks in her wake, not unlike the bars of an impenetrable dungeon, <br />She moves slowly, deliberately, her manner condescending yet strangely candour, <br />Stubbornly she displays all the false dignity she somehow still manages to conjure, <br />Short –lived is her moment so again she begins from the delicate recesses of her origin, <br />Silently she steps forth, a watery warm texture capturing the light, with subtle caution, <br />Such unexpected beauty she has, yet she is merely an expression of emotional human discomfort, <br />Surprising that this incredible emotion is something humanity continually tries to covert. <br />Her beauty, sustained by sad and hurtful emotions, spilling from the depths of the soul, <br />Like an overflowing bucket, she weeps over the boundaries as the sadness becomes impossible to console. <br /> <br />She is a simple and unexpectedly beautiful tear. <br /> <br />Emotional expression should not be viewed as a weakness for it is in truth a strength. <br /> <br /> <br />(August 2011)<br /><br />Jen Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/unexpected-beauty/
