The Lady in Red

The lady in red,
Walked in,
Ethereal looks,
Prettiest Valentino ensemble,
Complemented
In finesse
With
Kate Spade stilettos
And Ferragamo clutch,
The beauty
Maquillaged
Down to the cuticles
With perfection,
Gorgeous all the way,
A head-turner,
All eyes rested on her,
Sighs from
Black suits,
Suspirations
Amongst the gowns,
An admiration
She swept off
With her smile,
Silently shuddering inside,
Hiding gracefully
The trembles
Of impending debility,
Wrinkled frame
With misshapen stoop,
Frail whispers
Which would be
Barely audible,
And fading vision.
Yes!
The applause
Would die
Some day.
The yearning hearts
Would
Find
Another
Lady in red
To admire.

Showstopper's Yesterday

The 12 inch heel, the confident gait, The measured steps, the sudden halt, The blush on cheeks, the smoldering eyes, The hands on hips, head held high, The silken gown, barely there, A tilt of neck, balanced well, The sultry glance, timed right, Perfect half twirl, played twice, With a graceful swirl, she turns back. The world looks on with stolen breath, Oohs, aahs, applauds, encores. The showstopper’s yesterday, Now hangs in a gallery, Fading parchment, guarded unnecessarily. No shadows of glamour come a-chasing, For vacant eyes and sagging skin, For shattering illusions, hanging questions, Am I never going back?

Faint glimmer in heart

Ripe autumn air’s come to bless. Showering sweet November caress. We could be holding hands and walking, Silent but still talking. Faint glimmer in heart. White winters, no flowers in sight. Frosty December moonless night. And here I am hoping for your arm, To keep me safe, to keep me warm. Faint glimmer in heart. The year twenty twelve is leap they say. Oh! I can hope some more, there’s one more day. Hope for smiling summers with you, Hope for blessings to rain through. Faint glimmer in heart. Dying, not yet vanished, There’s a faint glimmer in this heart. Linking with Trifecta : Week Fifty Linking with Velvet Verbosity : 100 Words

The pain is all gone

It wasn't the first time. And it would not be the last. She could not stand them suffering like that. She asked for his consent. He expressed his willingness in whimpering sounds. And the pain was gone – forever. Linking up with Trifecta : Trifextra - Week Nineteen
