Warrior Woman Karen Torbiak 2000 Joy courses through the breast of this Warrior Woman, for she knows she has fought the battles of her life and is the victor Now begins her journey to reach the world of the man whose love has given her the strength to face the twisted trails of her life and self The battles have been hard fought and won, with fear and pain stalking each path chosen as she steadfastly moved, courageously, forward Determination was the pure, strong, steed upon which she rides through nightmare realities that she may come face to face with her fears Willingness the armor, that protected her from hurt revisited, as it shielded her from the greatest hurt, to finally be banished Sent from the Higher Power this man who holds her heart ever urges her forward as he casts light into a darkness black with the pain of a lifetime filled with rejection Knowing the battles must be won that her dreams may be finally realized, and she may finally join with the man she loves With courage and an awareness that the Higher Power is with her she surged forward with her whole heart Battles many, be they large or small, must be waged from a life so filled with pain, unending as the are faced, fought and won Gaining strength and self-esteem with each battle makes her armor shine the brighter as fights the battle of her life Joy fills the breast of this Warrior Woman as she kneels, with love, at the feet of this man who fills her dreams and spirit for he is the reward blessed to her The gift she brings is the precious gift of self with willingness, determination and courage showing a woman now freed to love completely Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams.

IF she is free to love completely, then she has won the battle! What a testimony! What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |

What a wonderfully romantic tale!! May she always love freely and completely. Great writing here my friend. ![]() LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
