Rebirth.

She sat beside the lake,
her head in her hands,
wondering why it had to be this way
when she fights so hard to make things work,
just to struggle through another day.

Black tears fell,
as she considered the easy way out,
losing all hope and power.
Tears ceasing, she gasped.
From the murky water emerged,
a white lotus flower.
