Be a Warrior Mirroring from the Abyss
Foundation.
If your higher self had a voice, what would it say?
Something like below, I hope.
Salute.
Title:
Be a Warrior.
Mirroring from the Abyss.
(A lone voice whispers)
My name doesn't matter,
My narrative you may try your hardest to shatter
You may smirk at my goals and dreams
You may try to erase them with cruelly whispered jibes
But I have an alibi
I'm a warrior just fiercely striding forth
Conquering fear and doubts daily
I wonder upon criticism's invisible shores and still overcome so much more
I am an immortal composed of sinews saturated with the ever glowing bright stars
Look at me
You green eyed beauties
Watch me rise above your worthless words and cries
Watch me soar as I pursue dreams and yours just linger confused and die
For I'm Artemis or Hercules rolled into one
I'm my moon and everlasting sun
The winds just silently whisper my name
The stars shine
Guiding my ways as I run
I'm just me
I always rise whatever the crowd says
And it's that sweet thought I'll continue
Until the end of my days
For I'm a Warrior
Just sent by my God
To help guide others
As I find my way
