She Never Needed A Weapon To Be Powerful
She was a princess trapped in a castle
She had nowhere to go and nowhere to hide
She was always carrying a sword with a dazzle
She always had her guard up and tried to keep up
She was a queen with nothing else to be
She led her people with such power
She led herself with such criticism
She took it so to heart and lost her spark
She was sad and cried
She convinced herself that she was not enough
She was once powerful
She lost that sword the one with the dazzle
She lost that sword that gave her that spark
She lost that confidence that gave her power
She lost that sword that was her in every way
She remembered what her mom said
She said "You never need a weapon to be powerful"
She thought back to before, before the sword
She was already enough
She was already powerful
She was always powerful without her sword
She never needed a weapon to be powerful

I was given the assignment of writing a poem with a quote from a book. The book in question was just a book of different quotes but the quote that inspired me to write this poem is "She never needed a weapon to be powerful". I love this quote because it shows that you can always be in control or happy or do/have any emotion/action without someone or something making you feel or act that way.
