I’m not the silly girl that I once used to be.

I don’t play with dolls and toys no more.

Now…

I handle swords, spears and guns,

preparing for a war.

I have wounds that have not healed.

But I bury all sense of feeling or emotion deep down inside,

Letting it all be locked away and sealed.

I’m no princess with gowns and robes galore.

I’m the kind of warrior,

you haven’t seen before.
