Dragon´s breath

Girls like you
were born
to tame dragons,
to fight in wars,
to lead armies.

Girls like you
were created
to swallow darkness,
to quell monters,
to destroy obscurity.

Girls like you
were given life,
to bring tempests
and hail gales,
unto their enemies.

Don´t let a king
or a prince
or a fairytale
tell you you are smaller than that
or who you are meant to be.
