Irony of a She

She projects a sweet smile
but her eyes remain hopeless
She convinces people around her she lives a happy life
but her mind is always clouded with fear and uncertainty
She laughs a contagious laugh
and cries unstoppably at night
She can run as fast as a cheetah
yet too weak to walk away from people.


She's strong but vulnerable.
She's confident but always confused.
She dreams, she plans
but afraid to face reality.
I look at her face, she's in deep agony.
She looks back at me, I'm in deep pain.
I cried, she wiped my tears
She's unconsolable,I comfort her.
For the first time, no one understands me except her.
And nobody knows her better than I do.
