It is funny how people look at me and think that my life has been a bed of roses.

Many think that I was born into the world where I got everything I ever wanted on platter of gold.

They get carried away looking at the beauty and everything I get working for me that they miss the part of me who is a warrior.

Yes, unlike the princess in the castle, I have been a warrior all my life. I have gone through hard times, I have faced challenges without wavering.

Maybe sometimes when you look all you see is a weakling that gets everything done for her but you may be underestimating a warrior. 

I have been through hard times, and I have faced hardship. I have cried and have gotten bruises from life fights.

Most times I feel like screaming or crying out for help but I  don't.  Don't compare my life to yours because you have no idea what I have been through.

Life has not been a joke and I have faced one of life's angry faces. I have been betrayed, broken, disappointed, neglected, and rejected. Anything that any warrior could go through in battle I have been through and more.

Maybe all you see is a weakling and fool when you see me or ever look at my face but I don't blame you. It's not your fault that you don't see life from my angle. 

It's not your fault that the scars life gave me looked like pampered injuries. 

I am sorry that my silence sounds like fear and that you mistake my gentleness as terror. 

I am sorry that I look like an over-pampered princess and my skin looks so untainted.

Maybe you can't see it because you are not me. I am a princess of my world. I fight my battles without making noise about it. I don't scream when life gives me a cut with its sharp sword. 

I  don't scream or look for help or let anyone know because I know that there is no one out there to save me not even you. 

I don't go about complaining about my pains because I  know that every warrior must live with one. 

How come your life seems so smooth you asked.

How comes you are a warrior while you look like a princess? How come it looks like you got everything on a platter of gold? How come you look so untainted?

It's because I have kept my cool. No warrior runs away from the battlefield. Because I know that there is no help in pity and no one will save you if you don't save yourself.

Because I rather die as a warrior than live a coward.

Of course I have faced life's mistreatment. I have received the lashes of life's wipe but I promise myself not to run away. 

I look so naive because I don't want to go about scaring people with my scars.

Have you cried? You asked. 

Yes, I have. I have cried my eyes out but I don't stay overwhelmed forever. Crying won't make a warrior a weakling.

How come you have survived?

Because the opposite of death is life!

Why haven't you run to anyone?

Because everyone has their problem.

How come you have kept your cool?

Because if I tried worrying I will loose my mind. 

I know that I could easily tell you or speak to you of my life's struggles but will you help me after then?

No, You won't! You just want to watch my disappointed face, you just want to hear me cry not as if you will console me.

You want to see me weak but you have no thought of ever strengthening me afterwards. 

Hahaha!

Don't underestimate me! Stop looking at me as a weakling because I am not. If you don't understand me keep quiet. I know that I don't fight with guns and bullets but my weapon is much stronger yet I want to live my life as quiet as I can because there is no gain in making noise.
