Memoir of A Dead Girl
The musty weeping walls suffocated me.
Feet dragged across unloved carpet floor. Old, rotting; no longer beautiful anymore
The kitchen coated in baby pink flowers, pale, dead, out of bloom. So it was, the ephermal truth of beauty proven true. It wailed, but I was deaf; for time would come for me too.
About this poem
It's about the loss and desire to be beautiful; in a feminine perspective which showcases how beauty is temporary; and that we all will lose our youth.
