Casting My Way Through Life

She wandered alone, swam even
through the depths of her insolate
heart. A shiny blue metal did catch 
her off guard. The rebel in her,
trying to run and entrap the beauty
that surrounds. A true hodophile in
this respect. 	

The iron cast jamming her legs,
stopping her from the destiny unknown.
Unbeknownst to the surroundings, 
undeterred by the same, she’d loosen
the metal chain that drowns her,
she’ll jump again.
