Trapped inside a body
That is covered with scars
I stand my ground
Refuse to give up
I may have been bruised
I may have been wounded
But I am not done
Not just yet.
The soldiers carried an armor
I went in bare
And I am proud
Of what I have become
I am not alone
My shadow is my companion
And I see myself as a warrior
With a cause to battle
For my peace that was stolen
I am not a dead soul
I am just hardened by demons
Demons of my own
That I was gifted
And my biggest fear
Is losing myself
While I so badly try to win
I do not complain
How I fight
For what's my right
But I ask you
Not to stare at me
While I take some time
To feel a bit of joy
That comes my way
Every now and then
I laugh at you
For you're only rainbow
While I am a storm
And when the time comes
You will realise
I wasn't heartbroken
I was the mender.
I was the healer
Of my own
So don't ask me
To break down my walls
I don't need a person
To bring me happiness
I'm content on my own
For me,I'm my home
I don't really need
Anyone or anything
To make it through
I have my wings
And I'll fly anew
I'm not afraid of losing
Not you
Not your concern
For I never asked for it.
Let me be on my own
I'm a warrior
Without an armor
And I fight my battles
Alone.
