She learned not to
always depend on
someone else.
She learned to stop
seeking comfort from
other people's embrace.
She learned to let go
of people who were
very dear to her
AND MOVE FORWARD.
She learned not to wait
for a knight to save her.
She learned to stand on
her own while wearing
a dress that was as tight
as the way they choke her.
She learned to smile
despite having a million
reasons not to.
She learned to pick up the broken pieces from what's ruined and fix them.
"Why?"
Because she is the rebellious warrior who sees beauty amidst the chaos.
