I know a girl

I know a girl
Who gave it more than she had
She wept silently on cold nights
Yet rarely was she mad.

She was clothed 
In strength and dignity
Her immense love was the
Secret of the unfading beauty

Yet it was the same love
That tore her apart 
The love that got under her skin
Only to break her heart

Yet she poured her affection fearlessly
For her love knew no tomorrow
She hoped to bring joys to someone
And wiped out every sorrow

She crossed oceans for someone
And gave her fire and earth
Never did she gave it a thought
If it was really worth

And Now,
She is bruised and battered
And might never be healed
All coz she went around wearing 
Her heart on her sleeve, with no shield

But this aint going to stop her
From doing what she does best
Her love will shine endlessly
For the sun never rests

I know a girl 
And I know her quite well
For she strings together a poetry
To share stories she cant tell
