This poem is called See What I See. I suppose it's depressing but you'll find that my depressing work is some of my best.
See What I see
Perfection.
You say she is perfection.
You say that her beauty is inside and out.
You are wrong.
Look closer.
You shall see what I see.
You will see the beast behind the beauty.
You will see the little cruelties.
Lift the blinders off your eyes!
See what I see.
See what is there.
See the pain she has caused!
Do you still think she's perfect?
Then God help you.
Because I won't.
Even if I wanted to,
I couldn't.
No one can help you now.
