Fallen away through the depths of the unknown
This picture, now all that remains
Of the suicidal turn of life, this girl brought into her world
To free herself from clouds of envy
One last gasp of breath
And he watched her fade
Unable to reach out and save the girl
Blank expression engraved on her face
All she could manage, as she left him
Dust colored coffin of choice
With nothing left behind
Would you still have loved her
If she had stayed alive?

What a great take on the poem. Making the mirror in which she rests a tomb for eternity. Well done.
Thank you for entering and good luck
