Look at that woman she is sitting there

its already dawn and she is all alone

I zoomed her to look

and felt tears stuck in my throat



Her eyes

where all pain been stored

Her hands

that experienced allot of cuts

Her legs

 that walked over thrones

Her body

complains about its aches and broken bones

Finally

I looked at her rosy thin lips

I see a wide smile

she traveled her life

helping, supporting and encouraging 

her children and her other half

now

as they got their position

she is left alone



how they just forget her

it aches the heart and makes eyes wet

I wonder why she still smiles??

and shocked to know why

she is happy because her children are happy

not caring about how n where she is living.
