It\'s one of those
An epiphany
The moment when
Everything that\'s been building your climax
Has been brought to the point
The girl is pricking her finger
The prince is wielding his sword
Rumpelstiltskin\'s name is said
Everything has come to a stand still
While the heroin figures things out
This is when the puzzle pieces meet
*click*
The world is still turning
But yours has stopped
If only for a moment
You realize all the things you\'ve are both
True and false
Despite your best efforts
Your skin has been toughened
Your heart calloused
You did try
But sometimes
Fate is not something you can fight
You\'ve always known you were a warrior
Just not ready to be one
But time is tired of waiting
You\'ve been thrown
Into the wolves den
The abyss
Even a spiky pit
That slit your wrists
Your heart
Your mind
Through all of that
You fought
Even when you didn\'t intend to
Through all of that
It has strengthened you
Never once did you consider
The person to bestow you your warrior
Status
Would be yourself
Yet here you stand
You dub each of your shoulders
Straighten your back
Look into your eyes
To see
Truly see
Unlike the fleeting glimpses you\'ve allowed yourself
You are not the person you\'d thought you be
You are someone
Someone
Stronger
Wiser
Perhaps a bit scarier
That\'s alright though
The battles you are to face
Are terrifying
You need a little terror yourself
Life has thrown so many curve balls at you
This time you brought a mitt
You are prepared
Surprise may rear her head
You can anticipate it though
You are ready
Months
Years
Seconds
Of preparation
That you didn\'t always
Know was prepping you
Have led to this
The development of who you are
It can be hard to accept
Because you never thought you\'d be able to
Be someone
Yet here you are
A
Warrior
Sister
Friend
Phoenix
Angel
Devil
Caregiver
So much more that words cannot
Be used to constrain
Or show
You know you have a light
That can be difficult for others to see
But you see it
Those golden wisps
That is enough
Your mission in life
Has never been to make others see it
Rather it is to use them
To better things
Strengthen them
Open people\'s eyes
Take the glamour of life away
The lies of you\'re not enough
Of kindness is weakness
Of every man for themselves
No
You are here
To shine your light
To brighten and bless
You are here to help
You lift your sword
Straighten your spine
You no longer need to dwell
You know who you are
What you need to do
You will lose
Love
People
Trust
But you will continue on
For the most noble causes
Don\'t stop
Even after a great
Tragedy
It is time to say goodbye
Fairwell to the unmeant love
Au revoir to the anger & sadness
Toodles to the lies
It is time
For it to truly begin
For you to finally start
You have felt this in your heart
You know it is truth
Onwards noble one
You have much to do
