The rage that resides within is deeply rooted and powerful. Hiding undetected for so long till it turns the braids red. A result of unresolved anger causing overwhelming sadness and agony. In pain, she paints her upper lip and leaves the lower one bare. A pain, which its source is a mystery and unknown to all, but yet bears a defiance that is loud. This endless struggle with stoicism evokes sweat drops down her face.
