held on for so long
breaking souls up
with the same song
looking for sanctuary
a place to belong
somewhere right
instead of wrong
to live in truth
to be strong
to keep curves
from harm

warrior child
you can not
be extinguished
you have
a distinguished spirit
and though you don’t know it
you are entirely whole
you walk through mirrors
seeking to fall,
building up defences
with fences and walls

your heart is transparent
but with love it’s transformed
you’re informed
it’s a new moon
a fresh dawn
warrior grown
you’re natural law
and you’re in a position
that you weren’t in before
you have all that you need
take heed

your place in the universe, has been secured.
