She creeps out slowly
A thief so sharp
Scared hesitant and pale
Sweat dripping the
cold face
Nervous, yet determined
Excited yet calm , hiding
The chill that moves up her spine
Gazes she must avoid
Wolves she must fight
Herself she must hide
For no one no one
shud feel her
Help she must seek
For her wings have been clipped
Kneel if she is asked to
Pay if it be so
Finally she reaches
Lonely cottage in the woods
No one knows her here
Unveils herself to
the rays of the sun
Clothes not needed
Jewels not worn
Shame just a word
For now she meets her ‘self’
Looks into the mirror
Her skin as snow
Lovely giggles, naughty frickles
Like a child she cuddles
In the arms so strong
Away from the world
Away from the crowd
For which she was just a thief
