She is locked in clouds;
Suffocating slow.
She’s fighting to break free
But pain keeps her bound.
She cannot do it.
Not yet.
She is swept away by riptides;
Drowning fast.
She’s struggling to the surface
But grief weighs her down.
She cannot do it.
Not yet.
She is buried in a deep pit;
Looking up.
She’s climbing to the light
But darkness finds her.
She cannot do it.
Not yet.
She is trapped in place by bonfires;
Burning bright.
She’s finding her path between
But fear blocks her way.
She cannot do it.
Not yet.
She sways on the edge of no return;
Staring down.
She’s wondering if the end will hurt
But hope halts her step.
She cannot do it.
Not yet.
