Dauntless

Her face was grim
An uneasy feeling crept inside
She hoped to be in a dream
But it was reality's flipside

Happiness started to drain
Down to an unknown horizon
Which caused immense pain
And away from reality she wanted to run

Having no choice, she tried to be strong,
Taking it like an obstacle
Yes, it did take real long
But her problems with guts, she did tackle

She was soft and weak at heart
Prior to all the mess
Presently she ain't even scared of the piercing dart
As now she's turned dauntless

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
