Chapter 168 - Awaiting upheaval.

Raindrops cloud her vision as she makes her way down gray street.

She passes on without a sound, all of the people she will never meet.

-

She only cries when it rains so that the world can't see her tears.

It's nothing new, she's always been this way.

Through days, and months, and years.

-

And in the background, she just sits while bigger players take the stage.

People are chapters in her book, but to others, she's just a page.

-

She never hesitates, just looks.

As all the world plays out its rage.

-

While silently her soul just sleeps

Her heart locked firmly in a cage.

-

She never lets loose her emotions,

Never lets anyone near.

-

Never grasps any real notions,

To her, her place was always clear.

-

When were you born?

How did you make it?

You were not torn,

How did you take it?

-

Your heart was pure.

A sign of evil.

You past the moments

Awaiting upheaval.

-

They tried to take you.

Turn your soul.

Make you like them.

Break your mold.

-

Oh, but you did it.

You fought the fire.

Held your ground.

Vowed not to fire.
