Far Past the
Expiration Date
She lived in a state of dilapidated luxury.
Both coffee and cigarettes had yellowed her
teeth.
She didn’t have the innocent puppy dog eyes
any more.
Her wrinkles revealed her age but she was
still beautiful.
Yet she has rarely smiled for the past ten
years.
Although she felt far more dead than alive.
No matter how good the drugs were her
children were still gone.
She could only forget for brief moments and
always felt numb.
Her house was nice but it was in all
reality only a tomb.
Empty -- Rone
