Tough girl holds back the tears,
never gives in to what any man says.
puts up a front to the whole world
knowing deep down inside herself
she's the most unstable and wavering person
she's ever known.
life wears her down
and her brick walls
have been falling apart.
no longer does she have the strength to maintain them
and keep adding the cement emotions
to keep the walls standing.
crying those tears of a long overdue
expression of life
has finally started the reach
down to what she can truly be.
always scared before
to dig in the hole of emotions
to find the cure.
