Tooth Fairy


Each second

Records the

Passing of time

Like a record

Playing slowly 

The lines and grooves

Remind the mind

Of a time no longer

When youth & beauty 

And love & passion

Reigned in the

Kingdom of life

Like rain flowing

Down I remember 

Me, with tears 

Streaming down

I mourn the loss

Of who I was

And become the 

Woman I was

Meant to be,

Aged & withered &

Losing body parts, teeth

Falling like pebbles in

The sand to lead me

Home.
