The Woman She Is

From the outside she's wonderful;

She's funny, fun-loving, almost always smiling

She covers her hurt with all the laughter

As much as she laughs, she cries within

For none to be in her place.

So much pain she's undergone;

Physically, mentally, emotionally

From the outside she seems like peoples' envy

But only she knows her problems

Only she feels the pain.

One after another from head to toe

She's the imperfect one

But all I know of her, is that...

She's got a great heart, very rare & special

Genuine & helpful

Compassionate & considerate

Unconditionally loving

God has blessed her

With that strength & smile

She continues her life's journey.
