Strong Willed
She's Strong Willed
as she holds back the tears
What had just happened
was one of her worst fears
She never thought
this day would come
The day she
would have to burry a loved one
Yet she carries herself
as if she's battling the cries
Even though the pain
inside still lies
She pushes it all
down so no one sees
That the hurt
puts her to her knees
She hides it all
behind her smile
Not knowing all
the while
That everyone can see
what is really going on
They know none of her
pain is really gone
She will pretend she
isn't upset at all
Even though the world
around her is beginning to fall
She doesn't want
no one to know how
it makes her feel
In fear of talking
might make the pain real
She is strong willed
but doesn't know
That her pain
really does show
