Concealed
There she stands, like a steel-maiden
Staring so daring, fighting like lightning
So they gaze at her with awe and wonder
They say, "Alas! So young yet so fully-grown!"
O, they do not know what lies hidden
A child weeping, a heart aching
Concealing the fragile one yonder
They did not know, for she wept alone
Pretending and deceiving she was
Holding tears and clutching fist
Biding time and plays the plot
Lo! She's so ripe before time
Nothing but a little girl she was
Come now, Child! On your knees!
For your role on stage has rot
You deceive yourself in mind
She knows nothing and she does not know that
She feels pain and sadness and she denies that
Claiming herself as a wooden heart
For she is freezing and cold indeed
Yet she made by winter sleet
And when the Spring holds her in his hand
Shall the blizzard turns to breeze

This poem resembles Kishuu Arashi. In my subjective opinion,
She's somewhat concealed...
