Broken

She thought she had the answers to everything, Life chauffeured her on the highway of bloom, It was a symphony of love within, She had all the good things coming to her room. With time she saw the other side of life, Her meadow was scorched, She became a troubled wife, Her glamour was botched. She was torn and shattered, She was cloaked by the night, Pomp and pageantry no longer mattered, She had a plethora to fight. She lived in the shadow, Until the ashes left her meadow.
