Sadness in her step

There´s sadness in her step

Oh she walked toward the kitchen
Every inch of her legs passing showed grief

Her feet walked outwardly as i the world would suddenly sabotage her
No please
As if the weight of her body was doubled through the pain
She felt at being compared with younger women

Impossible grace she´d never again demonstrate
Captured now by the girls that have fallen under the pen

Oh she walked toward the clothesline with agony in those calves
absolute loathing to a world which would verily ignore her for all she was

We have a growing platonic garden one that poorly sustains
I´ve raised my hand to farewell
Her tears have trapped me mute.
