Bound Warriors

Adventures past where winds have blown,
each taken step, we must now own,
distractions fade, egos has flown,
awareness travels through strong bones.

Emotions stand, still as a stone,
embrace each thought, joint sacred zone,
speak up then grasp feminine throne,
diverse powers finally shown.

Built to confront every unknown,
then heal all pain, so tears are sewn,
our time is now, must not postpone,
respond to calls from inner phone.

Insecure guilts swiftly atone,
regrets all die, shame is outgrown,
united hearts, never alone,
reveal visions brave souls have known.
