She had a family
She had a stained glass window that looked over the garden that she painted
She had a son
He went to soccer on saturdays
His friend always slept over when they won
Her husband helped her in the kitchen and did the dishes
Her husband took her had one of her paintings on her desk
She's been trying to paint this one flower just right for months now
She wanted to get her master's
She was applying to online schools, they kept sending her mail
Her email inbox started sending out an automatic message
I didn't know her
But her dog is waiting by the front door
He will be waiting a very long time
And they forgot to pick her son up from school
Her friends didn't know what to say
Book club sat in silence until someone closed up and walked out
Can you see where this is going?
I paint, too! My Etsy store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/LydiasPaint
