The scars on her skin
Show the places she's been
The stories that she doesn't tell
Are living proof she's walked through hell
The fire in her eyes
Wasn't there before she fought for her life
Some call her fake,
Some call her a fraud
But she's as real as it gets
And their insensitivity is appalling
Some call her ugly
Damaged by time
But only those who see the beauty
Truly realize
What this woman has been through
The things she's seen
If it was you
Would you mock where she's been?
You'll never truly know her
Until you've walked through her life
The closest you can get
Is doing life by her side
This woman is fierce
This woman is proud
Of all the tears she cried
When her life was on the ground
For all the things she went through
Made her who she is today
The depression that she knew
And the pain and memories it took her years to face
She has no regrets
She lives a life of pride
This woman truly gets
The real meaning of life.
