3she walked on
as the tide licked her toes
and chipped away
all remnants of cheap nail polish
she walked on
step by step
painfully aware of her invisibility
and the fact that nobody missed her
she walked on
in the light of the soon-to-set sun
in nothing but a string bikini
her beauty unnoticed
she walked on
and her footprints faded
in merely one wave
leaving no trace of her imperfect presence behind
she walked on
deeper and deeper
until her head went under
and she left the world that never welcomed her
she walked onI debated emitting the last line or not and decided against it; it's not literal and it can be interpreted different ways. I didn't mean this in a morbid way...I was just thinking. Please tell me what you thought of this.
