Forgotten

(Lily's last moments).

I was a being of fire,
Yet internally ice.
My skin was a liar,
For it bore falseness.

My outside
Was brilliantly bright,
But my inside
Lacked this light.

The futile attempts
To receive attention
Gave me an air of condescension.
Thus, I was despised.

In the end,
As my life grew dim,
I realized that a creature of sin
Is easily forgotten.
