The Girl Who Needed No One

The girl who needed no one.

She’s so strong
I don’t know how she does it
She speaks not of emotion
Her peace she covets

Her head is always high
Her heart never wonders why

She’s so strong
I don’t know how she does it
She speaks not of blame
Her peace she covets

Her eyes are always dry
Her smile never wry

She’s so strong
She doesn’t know how she does it
She speaks not of emptiness
Their peace, she covets

Because, they think she is so strong
She can’t let them know – she wasn’t.
