I stood Alone!
I looked back,
Found all I wanted.
It was behind, in front, waiting.
Still only a dream, my vision
My fantasy of who I thought he was.
Sorrow stared me in the face but once.
Happiness, I saw from a distance.
Could not convince any to take my hand.
I stood alone with my emotions on display.
Before everyone, there, I was, but not a single person
Understood that, this was my reality, an aged woman.
Still waiting for that one man to save her from her folly.
