Beyond the conventional door lies the untamed spirit
Where freedom waits, unshackled by dogma
My spirit rejoices at the call of life
Embracing its chaotic yet beautiful dance.
Though fear may whisper, I still dare
For the fire within will not be subdued by the ordinary
In my heart, only the purity of uncaged love and justice endures
Shameless to some…
Heartless to others…
Yet, to those who pierce the illusion’s veil
I am butterfly and phoenix….
Thunder and passion intertwined
Saint and sinner…
Heart and fervor…
Present yet always ethereal..
My world reveals itself only to those who see with the heart.
Sacred blood courses through these veins
A gypsy spirit defiant against the world’s demands
Within me, generations of unbridled women awaken
Their crimes?…
Too intelligent…
Too sensual…
Too fierce…
Too loving…
Too sexual…
Too just..
Too untamed…
Too much.
In me, the ancient fire of Freya Ignites
Only those who venture beyond her dark essence grasp the light
For she is not a goddess of suffering
But of eternal freedom
Protector of the wild and sacred spirit
Ally to warrior and poet alike.
Though the world may attempt to bind me
Burn me…
Shame me…
Sacrifice me to the veil of their falsehoods….
Like dawn emerging from the night, I rise.
Love me or loathe me, it matters not
For I am cherished by the eternal divine
I shall endure and I shall thrive
Some days scared…
Some days armed with creativity’s sword
But my spirit shall remain steadfast
For I will never surrender the fight
Revealing that to be human is the highest glory
And despite the chaos, life is worth living
For to be human is the ultimate ecstasy
To be human is to be divine!
