By Fatima Rumesa of First Year

Her!

she has her face set in a frown,
it seems as if she were about to drown.
although consumed by bouts of helplessness,
she tries to smile nonetheless.
she suppresses the need to scream,
and poses as if in a dream.
she wants to fly high as a dove,
but she's bound to the ground by her own love.
her life, to her, seems like hell,
she still wishes everyone well.
the person who tried not to make anyone cry,
leaves everyone sad as she's about to die...
