    Journey

    Journey

    How was she
    suppose to know
    that this day
    would change
    her life
    forever?
    as she walks
    the back roads of
    insecurity which turn
    to main roads
    of low self-esteem
    nowhere to go
    yet so many
    things for her
    to see
    her eyes are
    cold,
    thoughtless and dead
    as she wanders
    off the path
    she swore
    she would take until
    the end,
    and into the
    woods
    her footsteps
    echo on
    cavernous walls
    and waterfalls
    cascade down upon her
    as she is reborn
    into what
    she always wished
    that she could be
    How could she know
    this day could
    change her life forever?
    she's trekking through
    woods of the lost
    to forests of
    buried treasure
    her head held
    high as she
    welcomes her
    journey to the sky

    Metamorphosis, as if a caterpillar into a butterfly. Another great write.

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.

    Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
