Entirely New

And that was the thing about her

She kept surviving

With bullet holes in her lungs

Bandaids loosely hung around

The big cracks on her being

Chapped lips and dry skin

She never let anything get in the way

Resilience was her strong suit

A warrior at heart

Her biggest weapon was her mind

She was everything

All at once

Her eyes sharp as knives

Her hair loud like a roar

Her words loud

Too much for anyone

Who didn't deserve her

She was bursting

With every shade and hue

But shift your gaze ever so slightly

And she was something entirely new
