Alone I stand

High upon a snow covered mountain

A wilting flower is crushed beneath the expectations placed on her

The wind whispers her every insecurity softly

Slowly, painfully the words are etched into her mind

A wispy white cloud suffocates her

Surrounding her

Tormenting her

Always reminding her of all her past failures

The same white nothingness encloses her on all sides

Cold white appraising her and always finding her worthless

The flower searches for escape

Searches for a rescue

How much more can the flower take?

How long before it is crushed beneath the snow?

High upon a snow covered mountain

A wilting flower stands alone
