The Autobiography of A Face (Prompt 10)

An accessory

A life story

Unforgiven

Painted

Overlooked

and Underappreciated

One’s face is

Carried around like a makeup bag

Accented and accessorized

taken for granted

valued mostly when beauty is lost

and age comes in

it greets you somewhere

at sometime

and eventually

drapes down

Everything you once thought about it

doesn’t matter anymore

and at that time

your only wish

is to be seen.
