Exceptional A life ended in anonymity Precious Gems: An Anthology : She Had A Name by Gypsymooncat There's a few songs mentioned in here, but really, the poem speaks for itself I think.

The crystal cave within her mind a destination she could find at tunnel's end in shimmer light a landing, soft, to follow flight She flew with Lucy in the sky and tripped with Major Tom on high the needle kept all thought above redemption songs of peace and love The tracks and bruises on her arm convinced her she was safe from harm and gave her licence to deny the pain she felt, big girls don't cry This wounded lady of the night who cared for nothing, wrong or right, who gave her body then her soul, who made the highs her only goal... ... was found at dawn in icy water just a “Jane”, not someone's daughter childhood, youth, her given name unknown because she lost the game And so the metal slab and sheet cocoons her body, bruised and beat a life concluded in a bag Identity: a numbered tag Recognized Earned A Seal Of Quality Author Notes At last she rests. © Copyright 2024.
