her strength to leave
#WritcoPoemChallenge
#WomensDay
Her eyes gleamed with the light 
Of her inner strength,
She had walked miles,
Not worried about the length,

of the distance she had to go.
To reach her destination would soothe her soul.
Lost as a girl, ran away as a teen,
but destin for greatness,
was her only dream.
Fear held her back once long ago, never again she yelled, fear your no longer my captor, im letting you go.
The truth about the world and all that it has to hold, was no hers to conquer.
So she continues on course, day after day, fighting all things that stand in her way.
Never again will she be bound, or told what to do. This world is hers, but she only just knew.
Each step closer, one mile more, she reduses to give up, she will endure the pains and stuggles.
Never again, never again...... her voice slips into echo fading away.
She will fight to make it to another day.
Keep going a voice is heard so far away, she staggered to her feet,
tired but relentless, Im coming, Im here, dont leave me again.....
The voice is distant and silence surrounds her again.
Darkness falls and comsumes her mind,
never again, never again.....
weak and weary from the journey taken,
never,
again,
never
again .......
