The Empress

I made this country my realm I govern it by fear I have no mercy for enemies who try to take me away from this throne It is mine Only mine! I was born a woman I saw many underestimate me because of my gender But when a woman is born with ambition running through her bloodstream As I was There is no way to stop such a compelling force Her nature will blossom to command I am a self-made winner Smart enough to urdermine anyone's argument I did not come to be a follower But a supreme leader My country challenges are many These challenges drive me To excell in my capabilities I know it became a land of conspirators Since I came to power So I am constantly on guard With an eagle's eye over my surroundings Any wrong maneuver might cost my life The almight power I have Make me feel above all I have this uniqueness It is seductive to be In such a high pedestal My will stands supreme However Every thing in life as a price The price for my sovereignty as a ruler Is loneliness I live in complete emotional isolation I cannot trust anybody the confession Of dreams, feelings or expectations My existence is miserable in this aspect It is like to live in a devastated place Plenty of desolation It is a fruitless ground for a dignifying life ...
