CAUGHT

Sat, 11/09/2013 - 15:12 -- Eunoia

waxed lips eye canceler hijab  to hide the face,  to cage the woman in man's expectations shower her confidence down until she is just a pool at the man's feet.  every ripple he makes is another woman drowning in despair the man thinks it is romantic, to hide his lovely bride behind a curtain He says, "You mean the world to me, like a jewel in your jewelry box. I will keep you safe under lock and key because I will not let anyone steal you from me."   So she is held fast to him worse than hand cuffs because left to walk her path, as a follower but no, he has her heart, chained  and the clouds drips down her face blending with the make-up leaving smudges as if someone is erasing her soul
