Esmeralda

---

Poor Esmeralda with her haunting eyes,
Showing her secrets. Revealing her lies.
Some even say, "she was corrupted inside.
Alone was Esmeralda who was both witty and wise.
Trapped in a world she both pitied and despised.
With her mind plagued by dark thoughts,
Where demons would lie.
She traded her suffering for an untimely demise.
Adorned in a jeweled dress she stepped into the light,
Stood by her bay window and took her own life.
Showing her spectators her hollowed inside.
Now from the shadows she lingers she spies,
Gazing upon us with wondering eyes.
