The confessions of a true queen
I am Ariana
Born into the late mid April
My blood is the most faithful
youngest daughter to a serene father
radiant ability to seek insight
I am me
I am my future
and I am my past
longing to learn, wanting to teach
condescending thorn
in the modern day world
knowledge has always been important to me
like an oaks thick branch
we are all capable of wisdom
but i have seen the restrictions of those of my
brothers and my sister
and those of my heritage , mis antepasados
my predecessors
they did not have the luxury of school
And I take that into my heart and
I understand that
I am grateful
I am the most happy
that I have my books,my paper, my pencils
my wisdom
I take it not as a burden but as a necklace
a savvy necklace of pearl ermine
I am the blood of Costanza, Infanta, great ruler of Castile
I am my father’s daughter for I am
sensitive and compassionate like he is
I am my mother’s daughter for I am strong and faithful as she is
But never the less
I am me
