She is complex.
She is a survivor.
She can adapt-
Like a fish out of water.
She is fierce.
She is a fighter.
She has the heart of a lion;
The stripes of a tiger.
She swims through her sorrows.
She finds grace through her tears.
She carries life lessons
As wisdom through her years.
While her spirit is mending,
She is quiet and soft-spoken.
She becomes a rainbow after the storm.
She is a beautiful shade of broken.
