Courage

I told myself

as Thanatos gently

nudged me forward

with his scythe.

Courage

I whispered to my feet

as they walked to

the giant loom

and all of its spun gold.

Courage

I thought as the crone

saw my face

with a spark

of recognition.

Courage

I implored

as she slowly

treaded towards me,

a smile across her face.
