Throne of Embers

I carried a shield on my spine,

Armor built from every lie.

Scars were maps of where I fell,

Fighting kingdoms made of hell.

But the cracks in all that steel

Taught me what it means to heal.

I let the shine fade off my blade,

My wounds whispered, “You’re remade.”

Now I rise to a throne of embers, born from fire,

From warrior to princess forged by desire.

No shield in my hands—just power in me,

I burned through the battles and finally feel free.

Ghosts tried carving out control,

But I reclaimed my fractured soul.

And the edge of my own voice

Became the weapon of my choice.

Let the darkness crown me queen.

(Screamed:)

I AM NOT YOUR BROKEN SOLDIER.

I AM EVOLUTION’S DAUGHTER.

Now I rise to a throne of embers, born from fire,

From warrior to princess forged by desire.

No shield in my hands—just power in me,

I burned through my battles and finally feel free.

(Final scream:)

FREE—

Let the dark princess in me reign.
