A warrior princess
With golden armor
And an aluminum core
Told me to keep my anger
Let it boil and let it rise
Until the steam hits your tongue
And when they chime how you’re too young
Breathe fire from your soul
Let your words be the embers
Fallen at their feet
Don’t let your tears put out heat
Watch it burn slowly
Warrior goddess princess – queen
With armor that’s both palpable and strong
Teaches me how my anger is passion
And my directness is professional
Shows me that saying no is not being disagreeable
Just as crying is not weak or womanly
But humanly
These lessons I know to be true
If they are the only facts that I’ll ever know
Because warrior goddess princess queen
Is what I see
