Love Anattened
September 29, 2026
The beautiful child was loved for her innate charm
and sweetness.
That was just the ribbon of her despair.
A life she could not share.
She soldered on.
The well meaning world continued attacking.
She pushed on well into adulthood.
A struggle without a name.
Her smiles dug deep.
Her talent thwarted.
Her grief unseen.
