Ghost
October 16, 2011
A crowd is formed around a grave
Mixtures of tears and sobbing echo the quiet graveyard
A woman in a red dress is in a dark coffin
This woman lost everything
She lost her love, children and reason to live
People say that her face was never graced with a smile
Yet as she lays in her coffin
Lips stained with lipstick
Her body adorned with pearls and rubies
To everyone's surprise
Etched on her lips was the ghost of a smile
