Silence Engulfed Her

Lost in deep thought as she refuses
to blink;her mind on a wild chase 
to stop this race,as her gaze accuses-
many for making her fall out of grace,
She was once loved and cherished than diamond,
Her words sweeter than honey to the ear,
Her shining teeth made men change their routine,
Young girls saw a role model and a dear,
But now all these turned blur and can't be seen,
Emotion toiled with to make her callous,
Which was not in her mind and off her kind,
She now stares at the sky,which is serious,
Silence engulfed her,as she prays for soul
redemption and begging nature to play its role .
