She lives this ordinary life
Married,
Three kids and a wonderful husband,
Daughter to the most amazing family.
Nothing is regretted.
Nothing is wrong.
Nothing is noticed.
Why worry when life is amazing?

Multiplying,
Every second old ones are split
And create a new species
Destroying the temple they inhabit.
The news came,
They are multiplying at a rate
Like the sun shining every day,
It cannot be stopped.
Soon the disease has taken over
Into her bones
Like the chill of the water
On a hot summers day.
The luscious locks
On her once beautiful head
Fall.
Fall down from the tree
Like the leaves of fall.
So beautiful,
So unnatural.
