She Is A Book (Better Version)

She is a book.
A book so profoundly read, the pages once known to be straight
Are now crumpled with over-use.
The book was made with outstanding effort,
Like nothing ever seen before.
From her delicate smile, to her succulent peppermint laced lips,
She only speaks gently and softly.
A lifetime of memories were cut and pasted,
Strewn into alphabetical order onto the wrinkled sheets of paradise.
Pen blotches, drooped and dribbled from one quickening slip,
Although the beauty of it all never ceases to fade.
The cover,
Swirled to perfection in all different shades.
Red lace entwined and a silky lace bow tightly holds it togethor.
The vivid colors and vibrant pictures slowly drift into an off-white shade,
They are blank..
More memories are soon to come.
