She recognized the signs too late.

Downcast eyes. Averted glances.
Boredom. Sleeping too much.
Bad eating habits.
Slovenliness.
Refusing comraderie.

She recognized the signs too late
to reach out and grab the hands
of Fate.

That could be a loved one of mine. Kacy dear girl you are the best. Thanks.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Midnite, I see the last line "to reach out and grab the hands
of Fate."  

as being the cornerstone, as she knew all along. Real nice write. Enjoyed.

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.

Gosh....Could be me on any given day.I'm sure I've missed many the opportunity because of fear.I'm sure I've played both roles too.Well ,cool write,hope all's well in your world and that fate offers many a comforting hand in your future.

Live like it's your last day...
Dance like nobody's watching...
Love like you've never been hurt...

Hey Ray,
all is well here. It's more general than specific, yet also a bit about some I've known along the trail.
You're right, many of us have had our share of those days.
