Picture perfect on the wall

beauty that shall never fall

love as cold as coal

and a heart that beats quicker than the soul

Smooth and soft is her hair

darkest dark brown affair

eyes that shine in the mist

hidden light by her wrist

A body straight and tall

figure curved and all

 walks down her head held high

laughing at others as they sigh

But can that beauty really last

or will it go swift and fast

left with nothing but her pain 

will she see daylight again

Many years from her fall

her beauty lost it's goal

left on the side by her buyers

laughed at by plenty liars 

Rigged and fading is her hair

lightest light grey affair

eyes that are dull in the mist

hidden darkness by her wrist

A body rotten and small

figure lost and all

walks down her head bent down

crying while others steal her crown

And now we know that beauty didn't last

it went all of it swift and fast

left with nothing but her pain

never to see daylight again
