Seclusion

Water always flows downhill just as the sun has always risen in the east only to set in the west Hearts cry out loud only to be answered by an echo. A lady sits alone secluded in her room tormented by the heartbreaks of her past in secret she wishes to be compensated for all the days she lived in darkness. Questions freely roam her mind yet fear prevents her from seeking answers. Only she knows what came from multiple heartbreaks and countless tears that ran from her face. Never again will she fall, never again will she trust or allow herself to be completely consumed by hope. Hope for the softest touch, the most beloved kiss along with a virtuous heart. she wonders will it ever come as loneliness hovers at her feet. Prolonging her desperation envying those who found theirs first. She listens to the words of those around her. Who tell her to forget her heart and enrich her mind being reminded that there is always time. Yet her heart will not be ignored nor silenced it knows that one day her fear will succumb to love.
