I saw her face
All torn and wrecked
Like a blown up battleship
Her hair was ragged
A poorly mad bird's nest
And her clothes weren't clothes
But rags
Old kitchen rags
When she came to me
I felt guilt
For she had nothing
To be proud of
But when she spoke
Her voice sang out
Like a beautiful melody
Her smile was genuine
Flying like an angel
Then I knew
I was always wrong
She wasn't garbage
She was true happiness
Happiness within

- Title: TRUE HAPPINESS
- Artist: Winterbloo
- Description: I have no idea how I thought of writing this poem. I had a prompt in writing class to write a poem with metaphor, hyperbole, or simile in it. It could be in any form, and any topic you chose. So I started writing (I had no clue what to write about), and this is what it came to be.

Congrats.
This gave me chills, and I'm particularly meticulous, so that's a hard thing to do.
5/5
