Putting Down The Sword

She has fought her whole life
She fought to survive
She fought for others
for justice, truth and love
She fought even
when she was in fear
even when she was broken
And if there wasn’t a battle outside,
she continued to fight within

But what if she now, for one moment,
wouldn’t fight no more
and would put down her sword
would she finally find peace?
