Like wax melting bit by bit,
Starting to run down,
Life unravels inch by inch,
Crashing to the ground.
She will not look behind.
Like darkness hovering in the midst,
Before the light breaks through,
You can her pain as she lets go
And begins her journey new.
She will not look behind.
Like a soldier prepped for battle
With the enemy in sight,
She sets her target for destruction
Heading onward towards the fight.
She will not look behind.
One by one they gather,
Ripped from the depths of her soul.
Fearless she remains,
With her feet firmly planted,
She will not look behind.
Like anger, her heart stays fleeting,
Her determination sounds,
As she leaves the chains behind her
That kept her weighted down.
She will not look behind.
Like a traveler headed homeward,
Weary of the long road ahead,
Still she continues walking,
Knowing not by which she’s lead.
She will not look behind.
