A Woman Of Strength

I am a woman of strength 

it seems to most.


But have you seen 

the darkness of sequence 

in my eyes 

as the sinful tears 

stream down my face?


Or my wizened expression 

when my face cripples

when I remember the past?


Shall I recover

from what 

was once hell?


Or will I remain

living in my own 

lair of doom?


My definition of hell...


When she gives me a look of dispair,

I shamefully glance at the tip of my toes;

ready to hop in my grave.



I was a mistake 

as I think of it.


Or at least the outcome of one.
