Still she stands
So proud and tall
And yet her back
Against the wall
Strong, she seems
Her liquid eyes
Hiding tears
And broken cries
Salty streams
Do not marr
Her face and yet
Her heart is scarred
Smiling, cheerful
Laughing still-
And yet within
Her heart is chilled
Breaking, dying
Pain inside
Trembling, shaking
Tears uncried
While she smiles
Shattered, aching
Without, so calm-
Her heart is breaking
