The tiger is strong in character, strong in body
strong in mind...
they are amazing animals
one of a kind.
The tiger utilizes complete follow through with each strike with the intention of penetrating and destroying his or, her target.
What happens to the Tiger when they get scared?
Do they know fear at all
when their back gets pushed up against a wall?
I know a Tiger...
She's a fighter...
Her head has been held under water
Yet. Still.
She remains strong
She reminds herself that she's someone's daughter
Royal & True
These are the attributes of her
She has been scarred, and mistreated..
but by no means is she defeated...
Her eyes have a speck of gold that flickers in the night...
they light up at the sign of danger
she uses her keen sense of hearing along with her sight
No. A tiger does not know fear.
She doesn't weep. She has no tears.
She does not fear, does not hesitate, and does not regret.
And..
You'll recognize her the moment we've met.
