The Secret Door
Standing tall above all the others, her beauty radiated like the shimmer of the sunlight. Slim as a pencil, with long spindly fingers, a garment made from the finest emerald velvet, covered her entire body, down to her ankles. The woman stood high, on golden heels of silk, towering like a heavenly goddess. Her four arms extended, cascading down the dress she wore, just hanging loose.

A backward facing bird head, with beady eyes in the back of her skull, the colour of brown, grainy sugar. Her beak pointed at the end of her nose, golden and sharp like a knife. It was unclear if she could even smile, but she was the one I had loved. I could not love her enough, but the secret she kept, only kept her away from me.
