warrior woman

Tightening my warrior’s armour

while

tears are streaming down my face

‘This is war.’ he’s been declaring

with a sort of mystic smile

and

all of a sudden I realize

why

my heart is aching

ever since

why

my soul is filled with infinite sadness

from the beginning of human time

And

all of a sudden I realize

why

my body keeps bleeding

from hardship

Tightening my warrior’s armour

transmuting

right in front of you

In disguise

defeating you

with your very own weapons

keeping my weak points

hidden

You

decided for this foolish game

So

I am

tightening my warrior’s armour

just

to survive yet another lifetime
