A Warrior Woman

Do I not seem soft and gentle? My skin smooth, my hair undone and messy. In my softness my blood burns. Rage I will upon the battlefield. You will know and remember my cry. A woman can be fierce. A woman is like a sleeping dragon. Caution is required when you approach, for if it wakes, it will fly free. Steaming fire across the field. Burning all in wrathful flames. I picked up my sword and held it high. I show no fear. Onward I ride.
