TIME
She had begun gathering
the shattered pieces
that had been left behind,
trying to believe the words
she had just heard
A wayward shard pricked her
and with the flowing blood
out trickled memories
which reminded her why
she had stopped trying
Abandoning that task
she turned away to move ahead
with a new promise made
to her own self
to create a new world
for herself…
