Her beauty remains enchanted

Her beauty remains enchanted

(partly based from Jose Maria Sison's The forest is still enchanted)

Background:

This poem was made long after been reading one of the poems made by Professor and Left-wing writer Jose Maria Sison.

Upon reading the poem, the writer was quite inspired by the message given by the work and that at the same time quite concerned in  regards to the present-day women tainted by the prevailing culture such as lavishness (that despite its grandeur corrupts the essence of beauty itself). Obviously, he was simply admired by the beauty of the women whom he end up being inspired. And with Sison's poem serving as its basis for the work itself.


The make-up and the jewelries
Are left away in the wooden chests
The lavishly woven dresses
And the imported accessories
Have lost its lustrous power

The mere beauty of the past ages
Had changed for many years
As the chains once bound a someone's body
End up rot and broke easily
Leaving her alone once more to be free

And yet her beauty remains enchanted
And there's a new tune from her mind
A new magic from a loving face
To be inspired by amongst people to be as friends
To be loved by someone whom both cherished over
As they fought for freedom and to astonish the intruders

The passiveness and of the differences
Had been fade away as it lasts
As the age old disciplines
And of the unfair practises
Have closed its chapters

The differences of the past ages
No longer to be heard and seen again
The words saying "I am taken"
Hath disappeared in the mouths once being spoken
As a new and meaningful love hath risen

And yet her beauty remains enchanted
And there's a new tune from her mind
A new magic from a loving face
To be inspired by amongst people to be as friends
To be loved by someone whom both cherished love
As they fought for freedom and to astonish the intruders

The writer was quite inspired though in making that poem the way he loves to draw, sculpt and even write stories out of reality and imagination. The poem is also somehow reminds of one of Mao Zedong's poems as it said:

How bright and brave they look, 
Shouldering five-foot rifles,
On the parade ground lit up by the
First gleams of day
China's daughters have high aspiring minds,
They love their battle array, not silks and satins.

To others, it is quite weird to think of writing poetry yet they listen to music, Rap is even an example involving a degree of spoken poetry, however few would understand every word despite singing it, especially the ones what goes played nowadays.

So are the others that obviously, being made and played for sake.
Love songs without the thrust, Vengeance music without the reason, how come writers tend to create just to sell, or worse, putting less its own "heart" unto it the way those who sung with high decibels that made popular in mainstream radio?

Anyways,
The poem made is for those who are beautiful deep inside without what is being shown too much.
For sure we are tired of bitches around as examples.
