God's strongest soldier

nov seventeen '23

she is the one with the toughest battles,

but dreams pass beyond the highest tower.

she is the eldest daughter.

when put in situations, 

choosing between wants and needs,

she learns to assimilate for others and for their dreams.

and so with a heavy heart, the clock goes tick,

as with every second that goes by, 

her skin grows thicker and thick

for she is her sister’s laughter,

and she is who all the boys run after,

she is the eldest daughter. 

she is her family’s chosen shield,

as she continues to fix others

while she remains unhealed.

her father was her first love,

but the lack of i love you’s

made her shy away from anyone

who dare hold her

she is her mothers pillar,

standing brave and tall but deep down,

she is just the eldest daughter.

the world lets her carry more than she can,

she limps past the war trenches seeking,

how can i survive in a one-person clan?

please, everyone, stop.

i am just the eldest daughter.
