the light.
she saw the light at the end of the road.
her heart has carried too big of a load.
her only escape is a narrow path.
she has already calculated the math.
walk a little straighter keep moving forward.
a better life is waiting in the light she heads toward.
the mental and physical abuse has cost her too much.

her new life will soon be shaped.
she just has to squeeze through her narrow escape.
