The path to destiny

She stepped onto
the path less travelled
where destiny awaits
and dreams
unravel.
She dug down deep
into her heart
of gold.
For courage
and strength
to meet
the unknown.

Her courage
was shaky
her strength
unstable.
Her emotions
so raw
they were snapping
like freyed
cables.
With the waves
of composure
breaking
at last,
She stepped
into the sunlight
and out
of her past.
