She trod carefully
Each step sending ripples
Across the lake
Minnows dart
Silver
Catching the light
A distant sun slowly wakens
the early morning
No sound but
The crunch of washed pebbles
beneath her feet
She is alone
The only person left
in a world of sorrows
No one cares
No one knows
The water cools her feet
and her heart
She walks on
To the end of time
