The sparkle in her satin eyes
Spoke volumes of her character
Eventually she realized
Her pride and virtue defined her
She’s been her own worst enemy
Confessing self-inflicted flaws
Somehow fighting through the day
Remembering what’s gone
Now her eyes tell a story
Of a girl who found the strength
To live each day still hoping
To see that rainbow hiding
Through the pouring rain
With a new sense of pride
She holds her head up high
Focusing on victories
A smile lifts her lips tonight
