There was a silence

 

 

That begged to be understood

Over an unbreakable fence

where she, alone stood. 

Things were forbidden to speak of, 

Or to even remember

turned the fierce heart soft n weak

for her beloved daughter. 

There was a force

acting upon her shoulder

To prevent things even worse, 

she pushed herself to be bolder. 

Her fake smiles & her passion

hid the pain in her eyes, 

An overflowing compassion 

overtook the sighs. 

Kind & beautiful, 

Concerned & worried

But awfully dutiful

Not to repeat the guilt buried. 

Her child was the sun

that always shone in her clouds, 

Made her laugh, made her run

And shout out loud!
