Weight of Words

Shambles

When her world is crashing to the ground,
she stands with her head held high,
holding onto her tarnished crown.

Everything around her,
that was held together falls into pieces.
She frantically gathers all that once was.
She prays that, all she cannot handle decreases.

What's a queen without hope?
They do not understand her.
She's still learning to cope.

She will fall with her kingdom.
For what's a leader, without her reason?
