I Became A Warrior

Ann Marie 1989 (New Hampshire)

You are now a warrior
Aged, and a warrior.

I didn’t want to be strong
I became a warrior.

All those dead toils and pain
I became a warrior.

I am so proud of myself
For I am a warrior.

Standing tall amidst the loss
I became a warrior.

About this poem
