She was the life of the party,
the queen of the night.
She had a Personality plus,
a smile,shiny and bright.

Her wit and charm,
impressed everyone.
She lit up the night,
like the morning sun.

The envy of the cynical,
who dwelt in gloom and doom,
they felt their spirits darken,
whenever she left the room.

So dazzled were they, they never knew.
When she said good-bye,
she left with them her happiness,
went home to her loneliness......

..... to sit by herself and cry.

Very good ending; so many times we can be the Center of Attention in a Crowded Room; Yet be so alone at the very same Instant. No one sees your Loneliness because they only see the mask....

This happens a lot of times....the "life of the party"
is the most unhappy and lonely....I know, because
that's the way I used to be. I kept a smile on my face
when I was crying inside. That was many years ago, now.
This brought back those memories.
