Description Look at her                                  But look closer
her bright blue eyes                    at the dark circles beneath her eyes
her long, thin body                      She's not always
her legs stretched out                 so very
her arms so toned                       elegant

her soft, smooth hair                   A stray hair slips out of place
                                                    and betrays her in
                                                    imperfection...
her sweet carrying voice             She speaks
her strong beliefs                        much too loud              

Look at her face                          And now
that perfect smile                        she frowns
such wide open eyes                  She sees too much


                                                    And, the truth is-
                                                    she'll always be
                                                     a disappointment
                                                             to you

i really like the poem..and i like the formatting of it as well...how the left is all perfect, the idealized image...and then the right is all off balanced and such...
i love you courtney

It's a schemata! kinda... we had to do one in religion, where everything on the right lines up with the left.

I definately see what you mean by it..and you are never a dissapointment- and anyone who thinks you are is a seriously screwed up person.

Oh i love you so much honey!

Its very well written and immensely conceptual.
