The maze

Eyes wide open, but still blind
Feelings raw, but frozen
Words unspoken, with rage within
Saddened by the life she’s chosen
She cannot find the ’her’ within
She’s lost, without her power
Reality has now set in
Just like a cold wet shower
Her dignity screams for release
Her psyche now awakes
And finally, it took too long
It’s time, for goodness sake!
Her eyes once blind, now clearly see
Her strength is back, it’s booming
She gathers all her self-respect
And now revenge is looming
But then her dignity steps in
And counsels her with grace
While leading her with gentle grip
To the exit of her maze.
