She is not a mean woman,
She is just brutally honest because of the lies she has heard.
She may seem cold and distant,
But she has been hurt too much to trust again.
She can be violent and angry,
But that is because people have hit her and she doesn't know why.
She is sad and lonely,
Only because she knows people will never get her.
She is a proud woman,
Because she's had to fight all the way to get her dreams.
She never gives up,
Because people have constantly given up on her.
She never breaks her promises,
Because she remembers all the promises broken to her.
She pushes people away,
Because it is the only way she knows to protect herself.
She fights against prejudice,
Because she has been judged one too many times.
She fights against the grain,
Because she doesn't want to end up exactly like the people who made her this way.
You may look at her and try to figure her out,
But you will never understand the trials behind her strength.
