her face is like a painted picture you can see what the artist wants to show but you have to guess what lies benathe. she is like a picture because the smile on her face is always there even though they mock her the smile stays frozen; she is like a picture because her chin stays stiff it doesnt move she holds it up in the air to fight back the tears that could ruin her painting.

when she get home she the painting will fall apart; the smile will fade into a shadow and her high chin that stood proud hours before will fall to the floor until morning when i paint a new picture..
