out of the ashes arises a warrior
more powerful than the ones
she has risen to protect
the ones that can no longer
stand and fight on their own
she's strong aloof and
on constant guard of her heart
she will not let happen to her
as it did to the others
they loved too easily and too much
therefore they knew great pain
she refuses to allow that
just look from afar
because there are
promises of heartbreak on her tongue
heed her warnings for
she is not a warrior of love
but one of virtue
compassion and understanding
step in her way and
prepared to be chewed up
and spit up without a second thought
she's a warrior through and through
