She wears strength and darkness equally well, Like a sunflower who stands through dust to see the light, Growing up she was always half goddess and half hell, Wrapped around her finger like under they’re under a spell, Every man she’s encountered truly smitten by her sight, She wears strength and darkness equally well, Foreign and intricate, “Bonjour mademoiselle” Men; tons of them but none, fit her quite right, Growing up she was always half goddess and half hell, Unique and earthy like an iridescent seashell But also prudent with a deadly snakebite, She wears strength and darkness equally well, With a blazing fire in her soul as pure Noël, That will keep you warm through the night, She wears strength and darkness equally well, Growing up she was always half goddess and half hell. ~d.v
