For All Those Once Beautiful

For those of us
once beautiful ..
Remember this,
we were
only beautiful
for a moment
at the very most ..
And whilst
I know I’m not
as pretty as
I once used to be ..
Let’s drink
a toast to beauty
lost along the way ..

Hello Nev...

​​​​​Have you not seen a lot of them...

​​​​They are fine and a conversation with them they get more beautiful right before your eyes...

​​​​​​You think they live simple by what's in their cart...

They can't afford a big dinner with their grown children anymore...

Then the tears that feel sharp as a knife across your heart...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...
