young women, old women
in their heart
despite the years
the yearning to be beautiful
young women, old women
they look at each other
one with envy
the other with fear and contempt (of the wrinkles, old age)
young women, old women
they look into each other
one for a mother
the other for a daughter

Sensitive and well expressed. The repetition of the first line makes it hang together well.

Your pretty good at reading a woman's mind. Showing the envy and needing the compassion. Very high emotions at both ends Good write

Good poem.It is said that Women in general long for beauty
but it's in their youth.Old women and envy! perhaps I'm not agreeing.
May be you are true.
