THE FADING WOMAN

Sally Omar

THE FADING WOMAN

she became his shadow
no longer her own being
when she looks in the mirror
it is not herself she is seeing
she is fading into dust
no longer the blush
in her cheeks
she has become lifeless
oh…so very weak
he has sucked up her strength
and placed it on a shelf
now she is no one
not even herself
she is fading away
into a new realm
where he is the master
he has taken the helm
she became the slave
and bows to his every wish
she is fading
soon no longer will she exist

    lines drawn define to say a sketchy…I will not fade away not today…someday perhaps erased that is the rub…”perchance to dream ay, there’s the rub…” no one can define us unless we aqueous…no gender holds the instrument of our undoing and distress.

    to thine lines be true…applause applause

    been there… more than once… go so low… but then I know … if he can’t feel me… he doesn’t deserve me …my implacable core says no more … there’s the door!
    All part of the learning curves of life…
    and so I remain no ones wife… :)
