The Girl

She’s come undone

Her edges are frayed

And she’s been played

 

But they haven’t won

Lots of gumption she’s displayed

From solid persistence she’s made

 

Full of giggles and fun

By her people are dismayed

With her, there’s history to be made.

 

She’s come undone

Only to be remade.

I like your word choices in this piece. undone and gumption and frayed. I like the playfulness. I think it sounds better without the last line. good job
