It was a dark and stormy night,
just like any other night
around this time of year.
Under the hollow,
there she sat
she had on the same purple dress,
and her make up was a mess
but what can you expect
for she had been sitting
under this hollow tree,
for it seemed like a century.
Everyone murmured about her fate,
and thought that it was much too late
for her to keep on waiting
for that one mate.
Yes, its true he wrote her letters
that stated his return
but that was so long ago...
No one could make her see,
and somehow she knew
she was going crazy.
But, she will keep on waiting
for his return,
wearing that purple dress,
and her make up all a mess...
Its a dark and stormy night,
under this hollow tree.

Haunting and beautiful all wrapped into one voice.
This is incredible, just the type of poem I enjoy indeed.

Nice work, i like the way you implement the time factor. I could almost feel her pain caused by the time that has passed. I could almost see insanity lurking in to her.
Keep up the good work |

A nicely written piece full off haunting, painful imagery. The sadness lingers within ones soul upon completion of the read.
Peace
