She Smiles
She Smiles
When she’s born, nobody’s happy. They curse her,
Taunt her and may be abuse her.
She smiles.
Being a daughter, a lover, a mother she faces
Criticism at every stage for a mistake that’s not her.
She smiles.
Being judged, ridiculed and even harassed in
Different ways to be broken. Against all the odds.
She smiles.
Two months away from family and you’re home
Sick already? She leaves it permanently for you.
She smiles.
She sacrifices her beauty to shape your
Worthless life and you don’t find her beautiful now?
She smiles.
She raises you & you leave her for a spouse
You met just a few months ago. Though she’s heart broken,
She smiles.
She’s not to be compared to men because she’s
Unique, an individual, a ‘woman’.
She smiles.
Respect her, honour her because she’s way
Beautiful than you think she’s. Sad inside.
She smiles.
She always does.
