As She Drove Away...

As she drove away, all she could see was a ribbon of country road and pines.
She couldn't help but wonder what exactly the road would hold for her.
Driving, singing at the top of her lungs, it all came rushing back in a flood.
How was she going to drown her sorrows if reminders were all around her?

She drove until the brillant summer sun set on the glass of Lake Michigan.
All along Highway 2, she marveled at the beauty all around her, freeing her spirit.
Flowing skirt, sandals, tank top, and jean jacket, she couldn't have felt better...
Knowing all was ahead of her, even if she already knew unrequited love...
The world was at the tip of her finger, she just had to claim it for herself.
