Dizain Contest
Tear-stained envelope, left by the deceased,
Sorrowful words inscribed to whomever,
Expressed dolefully by our local priest,
Tender dove, thought she would fly forever,
Artist, pianist, songstress and clever,
Despondency plagued, her records had shown,
Hanging caused her death, physically known,
Though her mental state is what had killed her,
Her recent breakup, she said o'er the phone,
It remained hard for her to recover.
