Destined for greatness 
By Michelle Morris 
11/08/2024

You captured my body 
But never my soul 
My mind is a kingdom
You'll never control 

I'm brazen and willful 
Unafraid of your shackles 
I'm the greatest assassin 
Built with skills to fight back 

Beautiful and deadly 
Destined for greatness 
My soul is wise and pure
And belies my young age

Filled with mystery and magic 
I'm special and blessed 
You'll never own my loyalty 
I'm a law unto my own quest

My freedom is certain 
My destiny ordained 
I shall be remembered forever
While no one remembers your name
