She Comes

A crumpled bit of paper
Dust lined creased edges
A fog of memories 
Invading her heavenly sanctuary

Loud voices rape her
Moat of sheltering hedges
Adrift on wavering seas
It's better not ever really caring

Kick back haphazardly 
The note disappears
She glances briefly
At a life once in happy tow

Never look at life backward
It will leave you in tears
She shrugs off regretting
And snappily turns quick to go
