A woman swings in the hands of others,
Risking herself to prove her worth,
Fails many times in the eyes of family,
Discouraged by those with similar fate,
Punished for being loyal,
She is a woman betrayed by love,
Walking slowly on her path,
The stupidity of others drives her to madness,
Her emotions are always at stake,
She needs a break to breathe in freedom,
Failure itself fails in her cause,
Still, she waits for the warmth of love to honor her.
