The Woman

Look inside Down deep inside and tell me what you find in the bottom of your soul Look in the mirror stare at your reflection and tell me what you see in those bright blue eyes Do the looks match your emotions? Deep inside those eyes I see a broken woman a woman so low on the verge of falling deeper. From the outside I see a happy woman a woman with a smile on the verge of jumping higher. Look around you All around you and the people moving not noticing your sorrow Look in their eyes glare for a while what are their thoughts about you ? Deep in their hearts They wonder what is wrong a woman so withdrawn on the verge of collapsing Lower. From the first glance They see an ordinary woman a pretty woman on the verge of laughing. Look deeper into this extraordinary woman a fighter, a lover See the sorrow taking over this great woman a griever, a loner Watch the tears flood from this stong woman as she breaks.
