persevere

She walks the walk,
but something's amiss
She wishes upon a star,
to bring her bliss.

She sets her goals
but never achieves,
A mist of confusion
hinders what she perceives.

She digs a burrow
a hole so deep,
A corner for herself
a place to weep.

Days go by
she sits alone,
the world is spinning
all on it's own.

Angered with herself
the self-pity & tears,
She brushes off the dust,
the pain she bears.

She's found her hope
sets her sights again,
Today is the day
she wants to begin.
