Secretly she carried
a neon sign over her head –
and stared at passers-by
who looked up
into her blank eyes
and cared to smile,
greetings unsaid.
the wait was on
for the right (or even wrong)
guy to turn up one day
and pull out the right thread
to free her , unravel her,
open her up , as wanted by her.

I don’t think there are many people out there who would dare to open a woman’s heart and study it closely, do you? Still I have to believe it. <3
I'm glad you enjoyed the photos and participated in the challenge. Thanks dear.
Kisses. ๐
This is lovely…I love the ending. Great piece!
We all seek the one who will understand who we really are…although I think few find them…a fine verse.
Killer opening and ending. Alot going on in this shorty. Just the vision of the neon sign will make think about this one long after reading it. Great writing.
Every girl’s wish ๐
This is lovely!
Lucky her ๐
I love this! It is a wish, most of us have~
I agree with Charlie, we all look for that “special someone”. A beautiful verse my friend oxo
Rhythmic, musical, even sad. Another beauty from your stable Nimue.
Neon sign over the head is a great metaphor. would be an interesting concept for a cartoon!! (political or psychological cartoon)
