The lonely lady


(poems go here) The lonely lady She had no life to share with a lover she had longed for. Everything she had was gone even a house to live in, she was pronounced poor standing on a corner 5’3 waiting for a man who was at least 93 her long curly blond hair had grayed still hoping the life of a lover would soon come her way For every day she stood on the corner waiting for her night and shining armor when that same day a man passed by Once they met she was a fool he just tried to look cool What she didn’t know is that he was in the same situation as her Yet he found a way to cover up his flaws with blurs He asked for her name She said, “Why do you care!” He said, “You’re the most beautiful woman in the world.” She blushed, he had won her stare There was love in the air, as they glared at one another but she didn’t know they were actually sister and brother She never found out, he never told her that he knew Their love was as strong as glue Until five years later she realized they had correlation in their name That is when she knew love would never be the same Alone she thought, “Is this how it’s supposed to be?” Years later she had passed away from a love of deceit
