All I
see is a sad face
Smile far away
She suffers, yet she smiles
She
dares not compromise
She craves a time to rest
She wishes life is a little kinder
That the sun shows some mercy
That the rain seizes to beat her nakedness
Today is
hard enough
Yet she prays for tomorrow to come
If she compromises her fate
What will quell her hunger?
Who will cover her nakedness?
This is
a message of love
Listen to her silent cry from the distance
Make her smile again
