Hi, thanks for comments. I wrote this on the bus yesterday, where there was a small poster about a missing woman. She looked so carefree in the photo. Bits of her car have been found washed up on the coast near where she worked. So who knows? The character in the poem is made up by me (or maybe is me!) As to the fate of the missing woman, her family still wait and hope!

Hi Ann,
Enjoyed this poem,another good line is the one about life being like a shade of lipstick that's just too bright.

Has the lady in this committed suicide or is she a missing person?. I know the title says "Missing Person",but wasn't quite sure;especially when the last line seems to suggest that she's gone from our world permanently?

At last, a poem I like on this blog! Sad but sweet, with some good imagery- life as a shoe that doesn't quite fit - I like that. Nice one Ann.
