Broken jewelry litters cold floor;
small fragments of glass and beads
souvenirs of youth show brittle life
framed with anxieties bitter ashes
disfigured rag doll reminisces love;
little girl tea parties and bedtime stories
traumatic yesterdays lead to hopeless tomorrows;
tales of sadness open magic storybooks
decayed life dwells in pains castle;
single tear left behind, stained with fear
