She looked over her shoulder
And her soul was emblazoned in fear at what she saw,
For the world, it seemed, had crept up on her.
With its coming and its going,

But she found a sudden smile when she looked upon it
And saw, with relief, that neither was anyone else.
And with the entire world in front of her,
She set her feet surely and allowed herself to say
What confidence her soul had gathered
"I long to be there..."
