Girl Rising

A Young Beautiful girl with so much spirit in her to lift the soul With blissful hopes to come she would become a queen they did not want Many loved her beauty as a child but her step mother Of a selfish dander king family did not like her at all They wanted all but wrong for her and to lock her in a chamber with ash And dust that filled the air Far away from society king wanted because they felt she was from rags in poor Stead of riches and wealth a lonely child from the cottage where The king’s witch of a sister raised her. She became a slave scared to face the king’s wicked sister She abide by what she was afraid to go With a single tear she longed to be free and become Something more than an average girl. But a girl that rises up from the hate and dander rules set by one world She wanted to be free to be loved and liked for what she believed in As the days went on she grew stronger and rising from the pain in her heart And by the twisted society by her step moms brother who wanted nothing But sorrow and to be down in the dumps of rags She took a stand for freedom a stand for love and never backed down From her past she kept on fighting a battle which seemed endless As she looked to the moon crying out with screams that echoed in the forest Sounding so loud half a forest could hear She took the dagger and the shield took it to her heart and utter words like these Lord of the sky’s guide me today and give me much more strength Then I had yesterday and as my will to rise be ever strong may I not rest Till this dander evil king is no more She went off and into the castle she snuck into with mighty dagger and shield with the heavens by her side she struck him out and proclaimed freedom and love to all this is a girl truly rising faith and all that stands for what’s right a brave girl that rises from hate this is a girl rising up from the pain Poem story for contest( Girl Rising ) by brian otoole 8-05-13
