I have been alone all my life. But have never felt lonely till now. I feel fear of what I do not know? The air is so thick you could cut it with a knife. I am supposed to be strong. A leader. I know what I have been groomed to be. But after this long. I cannot help but to wonder what is to become of me. I am not the youth I once was. I am the woman you see. In a job position made for the young. Where youth is all one expects to see. To be thought of as old when I feel so young. Hurts like being stung. I cannot change what I feel is to come. But the fear I feel makes me want to run. To where I do not know. It is sad when you reach the end. And nowhere to go.

Just my thoughts of what awaits at the end of my career. Nothing fancy just simple.
