"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on."-Robert Frost


Apricot skin constelated with freckles,

her young legs squiggle around ferociously,

shes only 4,but she's a warrior.

Her bones will not break whilst

the glory burns bright in the burgundy sky,

and her skin will not tear whilst

the meek pride illuminates only where

him and the stars dare to dwell.

I originally wrote this much longer to talk about a young girl that is fated towards the army, but I decides to shorten the length.
