Snap-shot Battle
You will always be put down
in this or in that.
Whether school or
career.
For a
girl.
For a boy
Nothing's ever done right.
The clouds are not
perfect.
The sun is not
dark.
The grass is not
purple.
My eyes are not
Our lives aren't
perfect,
We never will be.
The reason I live isn't
them. . .
it's
ME!
I sleep for my health.
I eat for my strength,
but only for battle. . .
to hold the armor I'll
some day carry.
One day I'll say
"Goodbye"
and their swords will
rise.
But I'll shoot down their
dragons and
cut down their
beasts. For
I'm not their prisoner to keep. . .
in a dungeon,
a tower, in
a and far
away.
I'm not that kind of girl. I've
said my peace.
Now let me
go.
And that day I'll
figt back. Stay
true to my
word.
For this is my
life, and that
FUTURE. . .
it's mine.
