Silent Weeper
She is a devoted mother of two
A caring, beautiful wife too
She sings to herself so charming
When walking to her school each morning
When she greets even in a morning rush hour
Her face blooms with a smile like a flower
Her walk is brisk as in youths
Admiring the beauty the nature soothes
Her eyes are always red and swollen
As if her sleep was mercilessly stolen
If someone asks, she says with much hesitation
She got scratchy eyes, a mild irritation
She visits all her friends whenever possible
But invitations to her home always has an obstacle
She is a perfect lady I admired a great deal
Married to a depressed hubby, agony well concealed
