Why?

Sadness creeps in late at night.
Heart aching,
Soul bruising.
Non-stop tears cascade down her cheeks,
Countless thoughts flooding each second, wondering "why can't I be like her?"
"So many hers," she mutters.
"Another woman's beauty is not the absence of your own." She was told.
"Yet why do I still crumble to pieces about my own?" She thought.
