Her Struggle

Her Inner cathedral begs to disagree

On the thoughts that her brain wishes to pursue

It warns her of a certain imminent danger

Like a monster in the shadows, waiting for its prey

To come near his nook, to be trapped in its spell

In order to satisfy its ripe hunger.


What would she give up?

To live the life she dreams of, to lay claim on her birthright

She thinks slowly, her head buried in the sand

Yearning for answers she couldn’t find

What is she giving up?


Her eyes are hot and tired

From trying to look far ahead

Never seeing what’s in front of her

Never realizing what’s beneath her

What is she willing to give?

To gain the life she wishes to live?
