Rejection

With freshly opened wounds

She stands

With ice cold reality

She thrives

With a forgiving heart

She lands

Never forgetting her roots

She vows to improve lives

She has the pain

But she smiles

Her loved ones think she's insane

After being stabbed with multiple knives

She's kind

Loving and strong

Nothing and no one will prove her wrong

After being betrayed

She never delayed

If it meant helping someone

She'll throw her tears

Hide her suffering

And free herself from a ton

She's kind

She'll never mind

But because of that

She's taken advantaged of

And because of that

She has changed

Heartless at times

She has aged

But never forgetting her roots

And putting herself in others boots

But with caution

She used to be kind

And now she'll stay quiet

Killing the demons in her mind
