Spirit

Her spirit
broken
crushed
alone, she weeps
They offered her
only a choice
but where was her hope?
Their words were
hushed
forbidden
spoken in whispers
Her innocence
robbed
stolen
no going back
By chance or by fate
this destiny
that ebbs and flows
through her life
connecting her
with those that are gone
and those that live on
weaving and interlocking
their paths
so closely
they soon
become one
