[hometext] => (Struggle with age)
[bodytext] => She wears lingerie alone, to bed her hair smoothed back with perfectly applied lipstick She fingers her face in framed photographs tracing youth, unable to abandon memories Her hair smells of coconut and fruit, falling over her shoulders restless Diamonds on her finger so sadly small tears captured, well worn She doesn't touch his side of the bed it is cold, her hands frightened On days when he is gone the walls seem to echo the faintest beatings of her heart She remembers his loving touch but also his angry tones the ones that made her cry She studies her reflection in the mirror thinking how she resembles a flower bloomed, soon to be wilted dead beneath a lovers touch.
