Standing Tall

The moment is still.
The news is frightful.
I watch her rise
and exit the room.
Behind her a prediction
of failure, of sickness,
a future far from easy.
I want to glance away
and forget her face.
But no—steel my stare.
Help me look even closer
and remember only this:
The news is frightful.
I watch her rise
and exit the room.
Behind her a prediction
of failure, of sickness,
a future far from easy.
I want to glance away
and forget her face.
But no—steel my stare.
Help me look even closer
and remember only this:
A woman's spirit
is not measured
by the rooms of doubt
she may walk through,
but by how she enters
the rest of her world.
