The Miles

The Miles Author Dana Redricks April 09, 2015 She has walked many miles on those twisted roads. She carries that heavy load; With her head held low Nobody knowing the Storms were brewing. Inside; the little girl who Often hid in the corner Shedding bitter tears; Overwhelmed with fear year after year Hunted by the ghostly tells; Of failures that would hunt her The rest of her life One day after the rain clouds Moved away, and along with it The pain that tormented her soul; Her misery was replaced with joy She looked toward things ahead, And lifted her headed, and took her place. She is valued among the human race. She is valued in her heritage She has taken center stage.
