A/N: This was a poem I wrote after a very long, very difficult day. It makes no sense, and it’s pretty messed up. A cheap attempt at an interesting rhyming pattern that didn’t work.
Plain Jane
Plain Jane sits
In her gray-walled room
Her gray brick house
Her gray-skied gloom
She hurts
She bleeds
She begs to find
The love she needs
Try to hide
Your boring face
Beneath boring masks
In this boring place
They see
They know
You have no sun
To help you grow
Crawl inside
Your tired life
With tired eyes
Tired of the strife
Who cares?
Who’ll cry?
Who will miss you
When you die?
Plain Jane cuts
But doesn’t bleed
She doesn’t care
She doesn’t need
Can’t think
Can’t feel
Can’t take that step
And make it real
Plain Jane sits
As pain-filled years
Make painful wounds,
Cry painful tears
Won’t stand
Won’t fly
Just watches life
As it passes by.
