But then she stopped.
She thought of her dear parents,
She thought of her own lovely child.
They all believed in her.
She went back into the house with pursed lips,
She had people who loved her and she couldn’t let
them down.
She would bear everything for their sake,
And suffer silently.
And after all, tomorrow is another day,
Bringing endless surprises and possibilities.
Tomorrow is another day,
And perhaps the ray of joy would shine on her…
