She has kept her heart

The one that has held her pain

The one she has had for so long

Her mind aches

Her soul sickens

And her heart grows worse

She feels she is cursed

But somehow she manages all the suffering

All of it but how?

She has learned

Learned to deal with what’s coming

And that the past is the past

She knows that she will always be hurt

Too stubborn to open up her mind, soul, and heart

No matter how tough life gets to her

She always gets through

Always mentally strong

But physically weak
