Newborn
she borrowed tears from life,
when the pain stopped crying,
wore the scars with pride
and dressed a shield to love,
She took the world on her shoulders,
In the same way Atlas held heaven,
until she embraced herself with every cell and muscle
In the dawn of a new sun,
That was rising only for her.
