She is strong

She is perfect
They thought
She was the Strong One


Her wall had cracks
Her heart had holes
She is strong
Nothing is wrong
She has a family
She is loved
The Happy One they thought


She hurt inside
And couldn’t show it
She was hidden
By smiles
The Strong One
Was hidding, was weak

I feel this piece is really relatable. Most of us are hiding under some sort of facade. And this poem expresses that.
