Dress Model Poem by Miss Aurora

IT COULDN'T HAVE FIT ME BETTER.
LIKE IT WAS SEWN ESPECIALLY FOR ME!
A CRUEL JOKE FROM GOD, I THOUGHT, POSSIBLY.
AND YES, SADNESS WASHED OVER ME.
LIKE I KNEW IT WOULD.
I GLARRED SO VERY QUICKLY AT MYSELF IN THE MIRROR.
WOW, I ACTUALLY COULD PASS AS BEING SOMEWHAT PURE!
STANDING THERE I STUDIED THE INTRICATE LACE PATTERN WITH ITS CREAMY PEARLS AND SEQUINS.
THIS IS ONE GARMENT, IN MY LIFE, THAT WILL JUST NEVER BE.
DO YOU WANT IT? YOU CAN HAVE IT. SHE TOLD ME.
I LOOKED SHARPLY BACK AT HER AND, SARCASTICALLY MUTTERED, PLEASE!
YOU LOOK LIKE A PRINCESS, SHE ADDED. IT FITS YOU PERFECTLY!
I FINALLY HAD ALL I COULD TAKE, PLEASE, UN ZIP IT, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE!
THEN I THOUGHT ABOUT IT A LITTLE MORE, AS I STARRED AT THE SILKEN TRAIN.

IT IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF DRESS i ALWAYS DREAMED i WOULD ONE DAY WEAR.
I REALLY THOUGHT THAT DAY WOULD COME FOR ME.

I'M SURE IT WILL SELL FAST, TO A LOVE DROWNED BRIDE TO BE.
AND SHE'LL MAKE THE PERFECT WIFE, ALONG WITH HER HUSBAND, THEN A FAMILY.
