She stepped out in search of love,
To find her soulmate -
The one who would treat her like a delicate flower,
The knight in the shining armour.
Little did she know she would lose herself
In the pursuit of a man,
Who often felt intimidated by the depth of her love
Easily offended with her values - to live and to let live.
Yet she tried to thrive and fly high,
Even with broken wings
And a barbed cage that was meant to restrain her.
She was forced to fight a battle she was not ready to fight -
Not once, but twice.
Yet she dared to give love another chance,
For a true romantic she was!
Loyal to her word and her character
She gave more than she could-
In the fight to save her marriage
To a man who was just a boy.
Finally, when her peace was in question
She took a leap - a leap of faith
And found the light at the end of the dark tunnel,
Not knowing she was the light.
She finally returned home,
Not to anyone else but to herself.
She returned home to care of her inner child And promised to protect her always!
Isn't it the best homecoming!?
