Pain In the Dark
Happiness is the colour of her face
Helping her children to believe
That there is sweetness in life
Strive for their potentials
And master their destiny
Not knowing that her heart is sorrowing
That made her cries in the dark
Watching the painting of her pain
Hanging on the wings of her shadow
Taking every journey with her
Making her life traumatic
Just like is written in the book of sadness
As he never seem to care
Carrying his shame beyond every sunset
Luckily, she was a woman of childlike faith
Her spirit fervid beyond the mark
Paving her way elegantly
To rise up and fight for her legacy
And become winner in war against abuse
