Years ago I had a vision
I was young a child
Sitting inside of a ring of fire
There were cloaked women in a circle around me
They were telling me
About the life I was to live
I was back in the womb of my mother
I heard whispers
Another language
Sweet and ethereal
Comforting me
“Be strong” the voice said
I heard “Arria…” in my sleep for years
Yes, that is my name
Arria
