Her Awakening

Her Awakening

A short story with No U’s

by Rhoda Galgiani

Walking down the street she clings closely to the

brick wall for leverage as her footing seems a bit

 weakened by the danger within her desperate life

Longing to regain her stability again, she lifts her

head high as if reaching for the light in the heavens

brightness she longs for above her saddened head

Dreariness weakens her stride, determination lifts

her frail body again with strength of a warrior she

knows where she is going and with faith on her

side, she will gain her waited moment of glory

Past events drained her spirit deep inside, only for

a moment did she go back, daily the women became

stronger, faces the mental sorrows of the dark shadows

once again, she fights to rid her mind of the evil that

lingers reality gives her the painted portrait to carry on

Realizing that not all harm comes to harm one a smile

comes to her lips, a bright glow to her eyes as her

vision of the world changes to a new different light

This light of clarity is the path that she now will

walk overtaking her lost expectations of the mind

The brick wall was her promise to her glory as

she walked in weakness it brings her new direction

and strength to carry on, to feel the promise of a

new beginning - in her memory she searched and

recalled the teachings learned as a small child

No more shall she feel alone or distant from those

who cross her path in haste - for her path has now been

chosen as faith is the key to peace within her mind,

 learning to love ones self brings happiness and joy...

Seeing the light, eyes open wide - to her awakening
