Poem -
once + maybe
Once
When she was beautiful
Maybe mother, wife?
And dutiful
Once maybe
In lives long past
For beautiful
It never lasts
But once... maybe...
She was lovely
Blindly young and
Lushly free
Maybe,
Long before
She knew of fate
How life can morph
That bad can wait
To turn green trees
To death and dirt
Before she knew
How breath could hurt
Maybe back then
She was
True beauty
Before she knew
Her fate
Was me

The bitter truth of life is felt in this write
Maybe,
Long before
She knew of fate
How life can morph
That bad can wait
To turn green trees
To death and dirt
Before she knew
How breath could hurt
