she stepped into the room,
drunk with her dreams,
her imagination filling
the brim of her possibilities.
she looked around with hope,
with all the choices swimming in her mind.
but-
where were the unicorns?
mermaids?
happiness?
disappointed, she sank down.
and there will be a time where she will fall,
in loss of hope,
in loss of all;
but she shall be victorious in the end
and although the room
was not her dream,
she allowed herself
to be carried away
