Unpredictable

She was raised in a place where it can barely be called home.
At night if the third eye is not activated you will wake up dead.
Attempts to save her mother from crossing over are being made.
She moves out and starts searching for a place she never knew

She is a women now , she is tougher then before , her bones are heavier 
What she wants she gets unlike before when she had to beg for it
Power to her who has seen and been through it all and is still here
Determination is a definition of her , she made it with her faith

She meets her soulmate , in Paris he proposes in front of all the surroundings.
Life can not get any better than this, she bets . everything was worth it 
He does the worst than having an affair , she feels shattered
A gun is in her hands , she points it to him without a blink she fires.

She glares at other prisoners as they keep themselves occupied.
She regrets non of her actions that brought her to such a place
She sits on her bed and laughs like funny events keep taking place 
She is mad . it has come to this it seems , what lessons did her struggles teach her ?.
