Go, Girl

Run,girl
Flee from your dreams
Too optimistic
Find a new reality

Jump,girl
on the brink of your scheme
no more ingenuity
nothing as it seemed

Sprint,girl
no longer one
changed forever
Your past has just begun

Cry,girl
you are broken
heart in pieces
Nothing left is spoken

Victoria, you pose several questions with this fine write. If I was writing this I would not use the commer on the first line of each verse, but that is me ! I do use punctuality on rare occasions. The girl in this poem is escaping from her dreams and her journey concludes with a girl who has lost all hope. The poem has an effortless charm to it Victoria,and I enjoyed the read.
