She's

Sassy Lou

She's not manic - She's been through hell & back

And lived to tell the tell

 

She's not aloof - She guards the healing 

She inspired 

 

She's not broken - She endured harm from the person 

Who should of protected her

 

She's not intractable  - She's slow to trust -

Because the wounds of misplaced trust cost her deeply

 

She's not jaded - She's carrying truth 

No one ever helped her hold

 

She's not cold - She guarding worth -

She created all on her own

 

She doesn't quail because she's weak -

She quail because her body speaks the language her voice has forgotten 

 

She's not peculiar  - She's journeyed through darkness most couldn't fathom 

 

She's not abashed - 

She weathered the storm!!!

    Several nice lines in this poem, they are set up in couplets where the first line sets up the second. Well done
