A Lone Traveller-

A Lone Woman Traveller...
Bare Of All Her Belongings...
With Baggage Full Of
Hope …
Excitement….
Apprehension…
Questioning Her Own Want...
To Be Free..
To Shrug Away Her Worries ...                                                                      
Worries of Stares,
Of Ogling Eyes,
Of Askance Glances...
If She Crosses All
The Barriers
Barriers Unseen , Invisible
Stronger than
 The Walls Of Stone                                                                           
Hurting More Than
The Barrier Of Thorns ...
She Is All A Free Soul
The Soul Lighter Than
A Feather…
Feeling Like A Phoenix ...
Rising From The Ashes
Of Her Burnt
Desires....
