Beyond Reach

Standing together
Facing each other
In an unspoken circle
Saying little
Talking a lot
Yesterday
Today
Tomorrow.

To be Right
Forever be Right
I try to understand
Reaching out far
Stretched fingertips touch
Yet, I fail to grasp
Then
Now
Forever
Same like when we started
Our Talk
Saying little
Talking a lot
Still in that circle
Shaking my head
Failing to grasp.

A woman was meant to cry... for all the times she couldn't speak.. for all the times she wanted to scream, for all the times when no one would listen, no one saw her, no one helped... a woman needs to be able to cry out loud and be heard... It's the only way anyone will know...Someday

This woman has learned not to show tears, so much so that she fears she will be labeled less filial at her parents wake someday.
