A vignette of resilience

A vignette of resilience

She left home
She went it alone
Around the world
All on her own

Things fell apart
Separated from the start
Yet she held onto hope
Clinging to a faith filled past

Her health failed
Her strength waned
Challenges hit her
Her soul drained

She kept on going
Following her knowing
Resiliently hanging on
Her faith growing

Months into years
Life drenched in fears
Moments without understanding
Times full of tears

When money was there
Enough to help repair
She booked herself home
To face each knowing stare

In the new challenge:
To begin again.
