i am not as i seem;
sea-witches linger
deep within the oceans
of my eyes,

the pink line of my mouth
smooth with siren song.

mermaid waves creep
like rose-tangle down
my spine,
thorns jutting from the curls;
broken bends of gold.

lie; i was born this,
angel-skin glowing
in the twilight,
hellsong rattling from
the marrow of my bones.

beauty is vague;
the rope of my lashes is
so, and yet the whisper of
my soul is sharp and hollow:

my skin is breathing,
a melody light as fairies,
falling over torn wings.

1. Do you see the message underlying the words?
2. Does the lowercase seem alright?
3. Anything awkward at all?

EDIT:
OH my gosh, front page, really?! thanks so much, guys ;33
