she calls herself the strongest
if fighting against the odd
and still standing tall is strong
then she is
but if she is hiding in the moon
cause the sun hurts her eyes
and blur her little life
then she still is the one
she moves on
doesn’t care
live her life full of fun
we call her,
she has strength
one day she would conquer the world
and the next day she lets
her village burn
call her strong
then when she stays
and try to mend
why she is not strong?
she waits for him every night
for the dinner
she never complains
It is clear he doesn’t understand
she knows
she wishes to stay a little longer
till his eyes lie
and he forgets
what they built together
is just now in vain
she might leave
then
