She slowly puts on her face each day,
Not with their powders and creams
But with her own uncompromising walls
To shelter her shattered dreams.
She pushes down her loneliness
Hides away her pain
Faces the world stern and cold
Until she's all alone again.
She often wonders to herself
Where did it all go wrong?
She tries music to soothe her heart
Her loneliness harmonizes every song.
Tired, she wonders what to do
She can't figure out where to turn
Inside her prison there's no way out
She sees nothing left to learn.
She looks outside for some inner light
Looks inward at all her fear
Hiding from any caring glance
Terrified to look in the mirror.
But past the walls and scars she has
Her soul still fights its war
To tear down her defensive shield
Bring peace to her once more.
She must see the beauty and the pain
Know the message of her life
She's here to experience the truth
Not merely just to survive.

Very moving and so true for some women here .
