Thud, thud, thud
Her heart pounding with each step
Her mind screaming
An internal war cry
This wasn’t going to be a traditional battle
Her confidence was shining through
Her time in the spotlight was now
For the first time in her life, she truly believed in herself
Determination plastered across her face
Head held high
She broke the shackles of doubt that drowned her
Nothing was going to keep her from this
Her time is now
