O' darkened shadow'd silhouette <br />Concise, precise and wise <br />Tiptoeing through existence <br />Draped in translucent disguise <br /> <br />Disguised delusions of grandeur <br />Mistaken by mistakes <br />A promised personality <br />Consumed, eaten by false traits <br /> <br />Traits condemned by society <br />Cradled by sufficient hands <br />A turning point, a milestone? <br />An unjust act, no reprimand <br /> <br />Reprimand, reprehend or represent <br />To whom, or what, and why? <br />My confusion, postpartum delusion <br />Concealed, unrevealed a silent cry <br /> <br />Cry upon dead and deafened ears <br />Like Braille without fingertips <br />Exhaustion spills from tear ducts <br />Whilst red wine, my mouth, it sips <br /> <br />Sipping, savagely swallowing <br />Gluttony, a deadly sin <br />Repulsive, repugnant puking <br />Luscious lips, curled in grin <br /> <br />O' darkened shadow'd silhouette <br />Concise, precise and wise <br />Reveal unto me your secrets <br />Shed your skin disguise<br /><br />Wendy Bureau<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/delusions-of-grandeur/
