she roared through life
not an angry lions roar
but the roar of a cheering crowd
in an open space
her smile was instant
and infectious
her reflection vague
never seeing the inside
her touch always fleeting
her kiss gentle
yet demanding more
loved and longed for
now but a memory
forsaking all others
now she is free

What freed her, do you think? She sounds so maternal in her qualities. So nurturing.
i think it was her choice to throw everything else away
