She’s Frozen

She’s frozen to her window of opportunity, fear an icy irresolution dripping in rivulets down her neck. She wonders if she is enough, has what it takes, can survive the fall if her venture fails. Indecision sits on the cusp, wavers, waiting for a warm hand and steady heart to melt her hesitation…

She’s frozen to

her window of opportunity,

fear an icy irresolution

dripping in rivulets

down her neck.

She wonders if she is enough,

has what it takes,

can survive the fall

if her venture fails.

Indecision

sits on the cusp,

wavers,

waiting for a warm hand

and steady heart

to melt her

hesitation…
