The Dark Horse Is Rising

The ocean starts to gurgle.
The waters split apart.
The Dark Horse arises
To follow her heart.

The Dark Horse is rising
With a view to go far!
She intends to fight to meet her dreams
Wherever they are...

This was such a shy
And timid creature
Who resided in the sea,
Tossed hither and thither
More oft' than not
By waves of insecurity.

But a ray of light
Has drawn her to the surface.
For somehow she knows
That she has another purpose! 

Though she knows not where to start,
In a way, she feels set free! 
She is determined to conquer,
To make her quest,
To gain her victory!
