Her Tears


Her tears fall on the kitchen floor

They fill her eyes

Her tears are more than just something people call sadness

Her tears are pain,struggle,sickness,and fight

They are hospital walls

They are jail cells

They are small childern with no way

They are  betryal and love

They are a constant reminder of this thing we call life

A small world were survival is a must

Were the struggle is known to most

Were the ghettos are full of idolescents who wont make it 

Her tears show all of this

But she is strong

Her courage is more than most

She's Brave

She's hard working

She's always there

She's the definition of a real woman

Something as simple as a tear

Her tears
