There are routes of real and flights of fancy.
There are dreams that go unsecured.
Pouring out my heart has been most chancy.
The loan of it was uninsured.
I am not a woman who lightly treads.
I know now, that I run full tilt.
The rough wind tears my garments down to threads.
And stardust falls through as fine silt.
And though I stand now, without protection.
I have learned well, to fix my gaze.
I understand the barbs of rejection.
I wander far into the maze.

I do understand that promise and rely on that as an inner strength. I am working this one up as a song. Thanks all, for commenting.
