She Will Rise

As Within, So Without

By Kayton HickenlooperPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

A woman

Stuck walking in a life

In a man's world

Not understanding

Why this is so

Wondering when things

Will work in her favor

She drips beauty

In every flavor

The anger

Like a dragon

To snap flames to the core

The sorrow

To freeze what tries

To touch her soul

The joy

To make anyplace dance

In perfect harmony

If you catch her crying

She needs a hug

Or you'll see the salt

That will make anyone

Run away to pout

She is worth beyond measure

Time

Effort

And every desire

She is enough

For her crown is gold

Laced in diamonds

It holds the weight of the world

So she deserves strong hands

For she earned every flake

Every pearl

She knows her mistakes

And she rocks them all

She is a woman

In a man's world

She'll rise and conquer

To defeat it all
