Scissors in hand,Smirk on face,Slithering thoughts in mind,I see you coming,Wanting to clip my wings.Distinguished in power,Distinct in person,Diplomatic in nature,I see you coming,Wanting to clip my wings.At a time least expected,At a place deemed safest,At a mannerism applauded,I see you coming,Wanting to clip my wings.But I don't make a sound,But I don't blink an [...]
One last step and she would be off the cliff. "I fall or I fly," she breathed. The good part was she was born with wings.
Countless pieces now remain Of what was once one. Yes, broken is what I am. So is this it? It could be the end. For everything points so. Both those on this side And the opposite one. To break they might get But to remain broken Is what I get To choose or not. Yes, [...]
If I could fly, I would fly high, Way beyond the clouds, In big, beautiful rounds. I would cover every land, Both of water and sand. I would feel the wind in my face, As I flew around with grace. But no matter where I go, If you ever need me so, I will fly [...]

The very fact that you have enough time and opportunity [...]
Fine, birthdays and anniversaries I get. They mark another full year of an event. But how does one mark a woman's never-ending ordeals, passions and sacrifices? By a day?? Isn't it a bit like being unfair to someone through the year and then going and wishing them on their birthday? For oh, how grateful you [...]
Those dreamy tales Of knights and damsels I blame For my unrealistic expectations. The ones that told me To wait To be saved With patience and poise. What they didn't tell Was the harsh truth That all knights were busy Saving themselves. So if a damsel Waited too long, She'd rather be prepared For her [...]
I spent my life in foreign lands. So many men have tried to kill me, I don't remember all their names. I have been sold like a broodmare. I have been chained and betrayed. Raped and defiled. Do you know what kept me standing through all those years in exile? Faith. Not in any god. [...]
