Beautiful in ornamental windswept way
Wooden uprooted
Cold and hollow
Sinks into denial to survive the day

Driftwood heavy with all regret
No longer the lithe willow
She used to be
All she has left she drinks to forget

Sunset graces her sensuous grain
Beauty glows from
Every line and crevice
A self image she cannot claim

She begs her beauty from beholder’s eyes
Wearing wide open
Revealing her wood
No truth of her own she believes in lies

The sun can only reveal truth, so that glow is authentic I would say.

Love it much!

Love,
