Cute I am Not…..

I am not a sweet little kitten.

I am not a marshmallow

with an ooey gooey center

sweet upon the tongue.

I am a warrior.

I fought through hell

to stand on my own

without safety handholds.

I am a dragon.

Breathing fire

vanquishing my enemies

who dare to laugh

to taunt

to derail the truth that I embrace…..

the reality that is mine.

I am a wolf.

Running free

bounding through snow

cavorting with my pack

bold

sleek

fast

I will not be caught

I will not be tamed.

I am wild.

I stand tall

ferocious

protecting myself

warning off those who come near

intent on destruction

poisoned lips whispering dead words

trying to break down

take down

that which is not understood.

I am a goddess.

I am a woman.

I am terrifying.

Seriously……

Stop it…….

Stop laughing……

I so can be ferocious.
