Visitor

I had a visitor yesterday,
 a lady driven crazy by her husband ...
he has the kids, she has the road...
in and out of institutions, madhouses..
she is getting crazier now, than she was last visit...
we talk and drink wine ...
a faded rose now this time ...
and im sorry but shes drifting on the tide...
a disillusioned bride ...
life is less than divine...
till the next visit ...inside, 
i know death might release her this time,
it's on her mind...

This is quite the dim poem my friend! So sad it is, but very nicely written! I love how you wrote this write, a scary combination of real life mixed with clouded decisions that she could make! Very nicely done my friend! Great Work!!
