Old and beautiful!

She was tall,
She had sparkling eyes of hope,
She walked with elegance,
And spoke with confidence.
She was definitely something different;
She stood away from the crowd;
All eyes were on her,
She looked like a princess without crown.
A maxi printed with flowers she wore for the first time,
And pink lipstick on her lips;
Wavy hair with clips on either side,
And a flat footwear,
She wore.
All simple yet beautiful.
I know her for years now,
But nothing has changed in her;
No change I find,
She's the same girl I met in my school,
The same friend with whom I shared all my secrets,
The same lover who was over protective of me,
It's been thirty years since we married,
And her taste hasn't changed a bit.
From lipstick colour to me,
Nothing has changed.
She is my same princess,
Who has become old now.
