She Became the Warrior
She became the warrior she was intended to be
Making brokenness look sublime
And a shattered heart and soul divinely beautiful
As she took on the massive weight
Of the world’s sadness, desperation, and misery
And turned it into majestic silver-tipped wings
Sprouting from the middle of her back
As she soared away from the earthly darkness
That trembled and pulsated around her
Flying to her lover who was patiently waiting
For her to come home
She became the warrior
She became the angel
She became the demon
She made brokenness look beautiful

One of the Crazy Things Rich People Do That's Scary To Think About
