Analysis of The black Veil
She roams on the crowded street
full of beautiful faces
She covers her face with the black veil
to hide the acne traces
The traces have bought her down
deep down on the ground
She used to fly in the sky
fluttering her mighty wings,tree to tree
Now she looks through the window bars
yearning , with a sigh
