Aspire

She glides through the woods on airy feet
Eyes closed to seek out her impossible dreams
Graceful movements flowing from her like music
Thoughts of the past crowding her fragile mind

Memories return like birds in the new spring
Of love unwanted by a charming warrior prince
Of latent desires to be something larger than life
Of loneliness brought on by lies and deceit

The world is trying to shut her out
Weaving an intricate web of daunting dilemmas
That cannot penetrate her fluid spins and twists
But impel the determination of a bona fide champion.
