What Is Her Future?
She is standing firmly on her rock-solid fountain and
Is trying to picture her future that lays ahead of her
In her head. Should she choose her life set in stone?
Or live dangerously close to the edge, ready to take
The plunge into the unknown and wild blue yonder.
There may be a day when she will fully understand
Why she was put here. The sky above her might blur
Or tilt ever so slightly and sway, but she has thrown
All caution. She chooses to takes a chance. To make
A step forward is all it takes. She is left to wander.
