the certain sadness,
held within her eyes
she had oodles of money
but with money came lies.
barely happy was she
a beauty in her mid- twenties
beauty, that is true
but ask her, "what is happiness?"
she hadn't a clue.
she craves a new life
full of smiles and truth
not the awful life she lives
of crying and booze.
"But its the 20's!"
they'll say
getting drunk every night
and partying all day.
"Celebrate!"
and, "Let the good times roll!"
but who knew with celebrations
came losing your soul?
I like the way you've read into this picture and they way you've incorporated what you know about this time period...
