The melody kept playing with her mind
Bringing tears to her porcelain face
A memory, of a man, who once was so kind
Now he was, simply, her only disgrace
Warned by so many, to keep up her guard
She ignored them, said they were wrong
Soon to find out, life really was so hard
And he left her, with nothing but a song
Each night, she dressed, in the mirror, wept
Seems for her, it was the same, every day
Tis what happens, when you lack self-respect
And with time, the music faded away
December Writing Prompt – She dressed, then wept as the music faded away – Day 10/31
