Once more she stood there
On the corner of her dreams and one more bout
Of settling for
A shimmering rainbow filled her eyes
Her tears the chrysalis for all her hopes
But could she muster up the grit
Enough to propel her forth
Doubt gnawing at the gates of her determination
Watering down her resolve
She never felt more hunted
But the hunter was her own doubt
The opal that was poised upon her bottom lid
Slid down her face as she turned and walked away
Brushing aside the tears as she went
No one even looked
Just that stinging wind
Was all anyone
would remember
