"I have lived a thousand lives & I've loved a thousand loves. I've walked on distant worlds & seen the end of time, because I read." ~George R.R. Martin

When I was young I heard stories of Cinderella

And how she was rescued by that handsome young fella

Oh how I wished I could be like her

And ending up with a life so much better

As I grew up, the realisation began,

That to save me I do not need a man,

Real life is no fairy tale

And the search for a Prince is to no avail

I learned to stand up on my own two feet

All the villains on my own I shall beat

Because I am no damsel in distress

In pretty gowns or a beautiful dress

Bring it on, storm or drought,

Hit me with me all you've got

I wont go down without a fight

I will be my own Prince Charming tonight.

Have you ever been in the forest?

Among the cool and shady trees

The calming sound the leaves make

As they whisper in the breeze.

Have you ever been in the forest?

Watching the shimmering river,

As it flows, steady as a beating heart,

And, swift as an arrow from a quiver.

Have you ever been in the forest?

Felt the rustle through your hair

As you try to paint the colours of the wind

In its own simplicity and flair

Have you ever been in the forest?

And watched the buds cleave,

The enchantment of a flower in colours,

More than the eyes can perceive

Have you ever been in the forest?

And heard the wolves cry,

Watched the first flight of a baby chick,

As time passes by.

Have you ever been in the forest?

And walked barefoot on the soil,

Taking in the chilly feeling

While exhaling your trouble and turmoil.

Have you ever been in the forest?

Among the beautiful nature

Because the forest sure holds the secrets

Of every man and creature.

"Wear your skirt lower," they say

They dont always let us have our way

Not all men, but some, yes,

Want to see what's underneath the dress.

Objectified and unqualified

But not really identified

Our wings clipped at an early age

And cast away backstage

One mistake, and we live in shame

But the person at fault is never to blame

Too emotional, they call us

Our conditions are treated with disgust

Strong, is really what we are

We have the power to take the world afar

Equality is all we ask

Is that such a big of a task?

We plant the seed for the world to grow

We keep up the universe's natural flow

In front of the world we shan't cower

One day the world we shall empower.
