Twisted my ankle again. Really wishing Prince Charming would carry me around.
that we forgot
how to ask for help?
What makes us believe
that we can do it alone?
Just the fact that we’ve had to?
And then we complain of loneliness
as if it’s been inflicted on us
I’ve read of men
who would make it easy for us
to drop our armour
But even the charmer
prefers me strong
Where am I allowed
to be myself then?
And if I’m really a soldier,
when do I get to go home?

Strong Women
When did we get so strongthat we forgot
how to ask for help?
What makes us believe
that we can do it alone?
Just the fact that we’ve had to?
And then we complain of loneliness
as if it’s been inflicted on us
I’ve read of men
who would make it easy for us
to drop our armour
But even the charmer
prefers me strong
Where am I allowed
to be myself then?
And if I’m really a soldier,
when do I get to go home?
