Long black hair

Thick and smooth

Ravens wings

Clear pale skin

Deprived of sun

Small nose

Big black eyes

Framed by long lashes

Little bubble

Of a ruby mouth

Those lips are tight

Taut with worry

The white forehead

Crinkled in concentration

There's not a hint of happiness

Not a bit of joy

Purely the death of hope

And the crying heart within

Below her face

There is another though

She is happy

She is perfect

Drawn on lined paper

She's the only thing she has
