Description I've seen this girl a thousand times,
I've watched as she fails
and I've seen her break down.
And not one single time did I
bother helping her getting up.

I've seen this girl every morning
as she puts her make up on.
I've seen as she rubs
her tired, empty eyes.

I've seen her every night
when the clock strikes 12.
She sits on a bench in the park
all by herself,
and dries tears from her cheeks.

I've seen this girl a thousand times,
I see her every time I look in the mirror.

her name is Eleanor Rigby

do listen to the song 'Eleanor Rigby' by the Beatles, though i suggest you find a version sing by Joan Baez, because the vocals are much more beautiful .

This is very pretty. It's hard to find such simple yet powerful poetry these days. Very good work.

Sadly,, all of it is painfully, but don't worry the first century is the hardest part!
