“She Stood There”

In the midst of the shadows

In a darkness that haunted

She stood there still, silent, sorry, sad.

Plenty of time to think of days gone by

Loves lost, loves gained; her sorrow remembered

She stood there still, silent, sorry.

The seconds ticked to minutes

The minutes onto hours

She stood there still, silent.

sacred symbol women green

She realized she could not have it all

So she settled for less; but yet only the best

She stood there still.

sacred symbol women green

With her eyes wide open, her head held high

With a decision in mind

She stood there no more.
