I knew a woman
Once
Who gave herself
That name
Because
She lived;

Who decided
To rebuild
What she lost.

I think about her
Sometimes
When I remember
What isn't
In my way

Thoughts like arrows
From a bow drawn
With the strength
Of a different
Chest.

Not a mood I shall have myself, but I think I got it.

[cosmolinguist]

What isn't
In my way

Thoughts like arrows
From a bow drawn
With the strength
Of a different
Chest.

Oh I love this. Thank you.
