She Goes On
Created by Anusha Akella
Spiralling into an endless hole
Where nothing but darkness awaits
It’s no place for her divine soul
Falling into unknown despair that predates.
Yet, she goes on.
Her heart is made of stone, though delicate and fragile.
She wears an armour of steel, though covered in dents.
Her mind an array of colours, though all in a tangle.
Lips forever adorned with a smile, to hide the torment.
Yet, she goes on.
Could that be a ray of hope, seeping through the cracks?
Like a candle flame’s glimmer, banishing the shadows.
Like a harmonious melody, dismissing voices that attack.
Like a warm embrace, shielding from piercing arrows.
She goes on.
Because she knows she is not alone.
