black dress with delicate lace
knee length through a synched waist
pearls draped upon her chest
dark lipstick on a pale complexion
how could a women with such beauty contain such a secret?
lips split in two
covering the fear on her neck
her dirty little secret would soon catch up with her
with a knock at the door
suddenly the black dress matches the vibe
caught in the wrong place at the wrong time
black and white color
white noise
being a classy lady comes with baggage
along with her delicate lace
black dress
pearls
dark lipstick
she holds a secret
the betrayal and lies saturate her tongue
and now she is forced to explain

Cindy Sherman is a famous photographer. Her work is what inspired me to start taking photos. I wrote this poem describing one of her famous photographs.
