Notes About The Poem

Obliteration-destruction 

Raiment-clothing

Demise-a person death

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Black Dress

The
Black
Dress is 
Hanged in the
Closet as symbol 
Of the date that never happened 
Until a day the raiment was wore for burial
Of dreams obliteration and untimely demise of someone who escaped from life

Black dresses sometimes make a person look slimmer, but they're really symbols of mourning and sorrow. So, sometimes, I avoid wearing them though I really like to when weight is gained. A very beautiful poem my dear friend, Nayda. I love it Thank you so much for sharing! Thank you so much as well for appreciating my poem in your contest. Sorry, came from hospital so just came to thank you now. TYSM and God bless! love lots and hugs, GL
