She Walked the Fire
She walked the fire
Broken and bloodied.
No longer a child
Not quite a woman.
She felt those
Flames,
Burning and painful,
Everything can change
On a turn.
In the blink of an
Eye
A world can change
What is,
Becomes what was.
She fought hard
After waking up
In a hospital room
Legs that no longer worked
Did not have
To equate
To broken dreams.
She fought through
The pain
Learning to accept
A life changed,
But she made it
And that was
Reason enough
To Celebrate.
