Vanquish

The distracted world we live in

Is ever so fast paced

Going through the ceaseless motions

She performs them, yet with grace

In the midst of the moment

She catches herself in a thought

Who am I to be dreaming?

Where am I to be brought?

Suddenly, the infinite span of time slows down

This dangerously vast world she sees as one

Facing her captor in the eye of the gun

Now, it is she wearing the crown

Breaking from society’s stronghold

Easy outlets always a temptation

She fights the prisoner in her mind

Everything can change, in time

Monotony is no longer an option

The world as a dictator has been forgotten

She bravely endures what is to come

For she alone, holds the torch to the sun
