She stands poised and strong
She is singing songs
When in the shower,
Car, sing along hour
She raises her child
Causing no waves, sidles
In and out of fights
Bull crap holds no light
To demons she fights
Survive out of spite
A flame flickering
Damn the bickering
Voice horse from shouting
Mute anger mounting
Her words are unheard
Tears at the absurd
Tears for unfairness
Tears, no one hears this
Silent plea for help
Echoed and unfelt
The words were once hers
Now memory blurs
Curs cursing the cure
Words wasted and were
Lost in the echo
She still can’t let go
Nor should she have to
Others aches half true
Only she truly
Mourns truly cruelty
Injustice of life
But she fights the strife
She sees through life’s lies
At night she still cries
