And then she smiled...

She closed the misty window and drew the curtains 
She didn't want anyone to see
The unbalanced quarrel of emotions
that she wanted to set free.

The pounding rain on the windowpane
seemed as if calling out to her
While she was drowning into thoughts oh so unsettling
Causing everything inside her to stir.

She wanted to rise up strong
So she smiled to the world trying to forget her past
She forgave herself for her irrelevant reasoning
Liberating her feelings and her thoughts.

The rains receded as if consoling her
She opened the window and let the fresh breeze rush in
Although the guilty pleasures of reminiscing never left her side
All she wanted was to smile inside.
