Authenticity Poem, by coracaodacripta, at My poetic side

Cufflinks adorned with studded beads of onyx

Chained lockets embroidered with intricate metalwork

Tarnished by the oil based perfumes a grandmother wore to her death

Coat wardrobes knicked to perfection where its corners are jaded from the finish,

Not its interior - No, it smells like its wood base and the leaves that it used to grow

Sitting in solitude by the manor hall at the end where the window has blurred from molded condensation

This is more of a home to what used to be, or what was designated for us, than it is what we now hold to be true:

Fiction, magic, true love, justice, and depth.
