what is girly

I'm a princess
Yet I'm a warrior
I'm a protector
I'm a fighter
Yes I wear heels
And make up
I wear jewellery
I wear silk
I dance
I draw
Yet I can fire an arrow
And never miss my target
I can shoot a gun
I climb trees
I run
I hunt
I do like shopping
I love glitter
And diaries
But that doesn't mean I'm weak
It doesn't mean I don't fight
It just means I like certain things
It doesn't mean I will run from a fight
It doesn't mean I'm afraid of the night
I get called girly
Does that mean I'm weak?
Does that mean I'm afraid?
Does that mean I'm useless?
I truly don't know
Do they expect me to be dumb in a show
It's not fair
Does girly mean always fixing your hair?
I to some people I guess I'm girly
But their wrong
I know inside and out I am strong.
