I STAND ALONE
I stand on the hill alone
My eyes see only death and suffering
My strength runs from my Pride.
My shield, is from the pain I have gained, but the pain has made me stronger
And pain will continue to make me stronger.
My soul has been ripped into many pieces for my past pains,
But I have only found it to get in my way.
My will comes from my pride and honor and my strength.
I have no need to believe in a God who hides in the clouds.
But my Goddesses give me strength when my own fails me.
I have no need to look up at the sun for forgiveness, for forgiveness I look at the moon for it.
Even with this I have, I still find myself on the Hill alone.
The hill is a fight ahead of me, but I will not back down from the fight.
I will take it head on.
If death takes me today.
I will die on my feet as a warrior.
Not on my knees as a slave.
