Abigail

Abigail
 
Abigail stares out the window,
focusing on the night, crescent moon
while talking in her own mind.
 
So many emotions running through her.
Quiet tears are filling Abigail’s eyes,
thinking of the unknown next turn.
 
Abigail feels like she is starting over again.
The losses have been constantly coming.
Inside, she does not want to fully break.
 
She knows rebuilding will take strength.
Abigail has been here before
and knows the steps to be taken.
 
Abigail feels she is different, stronger
than even the day before today.
Reminds herself that old ways or methods
can be spiritually damaging.
 
Tonight, Abigail wants a break from it all.
A mix of wine and thoughts.
Staring at the bright, crescent moon.
Tomorrow the build begins.
