She has learned that she deserves more,
That people are not be trusted,
And that there are more lies told than there are stars in the sky.

She has learned to be her own hero
Because those she relied on have left her broken.
She has endured more than anyone will ever know.
And after every loss; every heartbreak; every betrayal,
She raises herself up
Like a Phoenix from the ashes.
She wipes the blood from her hands,
And the tears from her face,
And puts on a smile.

She has learned to befriend the demons that live in her mind.
They have made her their Queen.
