Tired beyond her years <br />She wore her life on her <br />Face that day in the traffic. <br />A once white Debutante <br />Who longed for life and love. <br />Maybe life did not deliver, <br />Or delivered too much. <br />Where were you rushing to <br />From the traffic lights, <br />Girl with the sad in your eyes. <br />Too rushed to notice me noticing <br />Too rushed to care. <br />Debutante, too sad <br /> <br /> <br />Martin Swords <br />Nov 2001<br /><br />Martin Swords<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-girl-with-the-sad-in-her-eyes/
