Shining like a sun-kissed jewel
But light hidden from view
The Lady of the Veil spoke of such designs
Freedom in a world of confines
Held up in such high regard
But one not of her own desire
How could she be kept under guard
When in her chest raged a secret fire?
To say no when yes was the expected word
To liberate a mind caged in boredom
Unsheathe with all her natural passion her sword
And cut down the lies of a decrepit kingdom
The Lady: to be a warrior or a maiden?
But in truth she was both, and never compromising
Just as feminine as she was brazen heroine
Exuding a woman's grace and at once disruption rising
So she armed herself with great weapons
Steeling her mind with knowledge's might
Courage for her heart to continue her war on
All so that she may one day let shine that hidden light
