Lone Figure

Figure stands lone in lofty room

Courageous spirit born to doom

She yet presses boundaries

Testing limits

Proving to the world

She is but free spirit

Absent wings she but inhibits

Vessel with vision

Vessel with courage

A figure which none shall ever discourage

Lone she may stand

But worlds with tremble beneath her hand.
