The Enigma

Deeply engulfed in all her fears
empty eyes can only stare
Emotions hidden from her face
vanished now without a trace

Her heart is flooded from inside
drowning with the tears she cried
Unconcerned to turn the spout
to save herself and let it out

Stoical she might portray
Enigmatic some might say
Who destroyed this woman's prowess..
Who can abide in loneliness..

Left alone without remorse
she shies away from all recourse
As words still echo in her head
a loving soul is left for dead...
