She knew exactly what she was up against
sword in hand
armour abroad skin
mind in a golden forest
where no imposer worth letting in.
And deeper and deeper she goes
into that forest, unknown,
fighting demons
on the land of her very own Kingdom
she calls home.
She knew exactly what she was up against
sword in hand
armour abroad skin
mind in a golden forest
treading mercury rivers
following Alice and Peter
to where the lost boys like to go.
She knew exactly what she was up against
sword in hand
armour abroad skin
mind in a golden forest
calling from the bottom of the rabbit hole,
again, falling, again, and again, and then
-because forbid it to be actual chivalry of real men,
she took the hand of the everyoung Pan
flying to where only he and she can-
make tendencies, turn to memories, waking alone in the forest
again and again.
Blasphemy! She cries against more men.
She knew exactly what she was up against
sword in hand
armour abroad skin
mind in a golden forest
heart in the queen's hand.
One foul breath
and that's all that's to be left, of an armoured girl-
trapped in the hands of another, among her own land.
She knew exactly what she was up against
sword in hand
mind in a golden forest
no more,
no such galore.
A reality figmented to believe
and believe that which is not seen.
Armour on the floor,
another dose taken to make her think of a reality so dazed.
She knew exactly what she was up against
an old fashioned dreamer
in the modern conformed day and age.
Forced to stop believing
unless it's to their one all mighty
that you pray.
Armoured no more, as raw as she could be,
pills in the boison bowl, mind in a rabbit hole.
Never letting anyone claim her crazed
as she freed from their shackes in the modern age.
She knew exactly what she was up against
sword in hand
armour abroad skin
mind in a golden forest
mercury rivers flowing within.
Demons only stay until she slays,
reclaiming the Kingom of her own to live in.
She knew exactly what she was up against
sword in hand
armour no longer upon her skin
mind in a golden forest
baths in pure rivers, cleansing sins
in rays and figments of light guiding her to
another land other than wonderland where no one could
ever stand
in her way.
