Decompose by zaldy icaonapo |
Her life was measured in teardrops,
Ill-advised decisions
That left her hollow and broken,
Discarded burgundy kisses
On discount tissues…
Her spirit ragged and worn
Like a crumpled dollar bill
Stuffed into a lost and found wallet,
Her value forgotten
Until someone peered inside
And discovered her hidden worth.

"her value forgotten until someone peered inside" so often people fail to look deeper, discarding someone they don't even know. Very moving poem!
