How To Be a Queen

To be a queen 

You must bear a heavy crown 

And wear it as if it were a feather. 

You must have strength in your heart, 

Determination in your eyes, 

And the will to survive must reside in your soul. 

You must tell yourself to stand, 

Though beaten you may be, 

You cannot be broken yet. 

There is nothing you must fear, 

That should not fear you 

A thousand times more.

Your heart must be wide as a galaxy, 

And your veins lined with stars. 

You must be more than this flesh that binds you. 

Never mind what you are made of, 

You are something extraordinary, 

So do extraordinary things.
