abused, neglected
parents rejected
left to my own devices

rose petal potions
solitary, singular
deep and morose
other worldly
a living ghost
Karen lingers
haunting

A poignant poem made more so through your choice of voice. Perfect match. Well-done.
Thank you very much 🙂
Not yet past or passed, but passive. Very meaningful!
Thank you – it’s always so exciting to see what readers make of my poems 🙂
