Eternal Warrior

I know just how hard they try to break you
But they forgot about divine strength
You are not a lost kitten
But a ferocious lioness

You have the spirit of warrior
And the soul of a poet
A soul that yearns to live a new life
A life dreamt so long ago
Yet your wings were torn 
Before you got a chance to fly

Warrior by day
Princess by night
Fragile muse 
Full of magick and torture
Men worship your steps
Yet they don't know your pain

Dream sweet warrior
Dream until you build a new reality
Stand where others have fallen
Roar past their cowardice

Like Atlas, a heavy weight you carry on your shoulders
Yet Athena encourages you
The great warrior Goddess

Let your gypsy soul show you the way
Succumb to the dance of Aphrodite 
Whose arms rocked you while in Tartarus
Until the fates brought you back
If only for a short time

Shamelessly surrender to moments of ecstasy
Stolen fragile moments
That bring a smile to your face
Feeding your life with poetry and sense

Your enemies eagerly try to haunt you down
But you are protected by ancient Gods and Life
Fallen angel 
Denied of love within this life
Yet your life will be the insignia
By which others will rise

I believe, with quiet fervor, that one soul can shift the course of many. I write not from abstraction, but from the raw immediacy of lived experience and learned studies - from the labyrinth of my own challenges, triumphs, questions and awakenings. In offering the contours of my inner world, I hope to awaken in others a remembrance of their own power, their own unclaimed wholeness.
