She sits alone to ponder
Sudden chill disrobes her senses
The life she leads is broken now
Shattered by white picket fences

She held out for the dreams
of promise and prosperity
Never did arrive
Lifetime lost amenities

Men of fortune would surround
This diamond in the rough
Tear drops fall this drizzling eve
Twas never quite enough

Catered to perfection
Glass house with no stones
Swept away with riches
With the rug you’ve always owned

Tomorrow is a new day
To frolic with elite
Shed the sorrow salty girl
The bread winners sense defeat

Sit alone and ponder
Those with lesser jewels
They find contentment in their heart
They found it … why can’t you?

nice...I think I almost cried...

Beautifully Sad,,,

perfect description

Nice write.

Nice.

Awesome write....very intense....very true....contentment and happiness are not found in money/riches....they are ultimately found from within.
