She stood straight and tall
Till the music and mood beat her down
Her brown eyes were pools
Muddy water where dream drown
She knew the blues
She lived the blues
For more moons she unremembered,
She had lived her songs
For more tunes she unremembered,
She done everything wrong.
But singing was what she did,
And the blues how she lived;
For beginnings unremembered
For endings unremembered.

like we used to say back in the day, heavy.
I like this.Anybody that has gone through
hard enough times that theyre "unremembered"
can relate to this sad piece.  Good going Gloom!
