Analysis of Huntress

Nakita Beauclaire 1989 (Louisiana)



Prepare for battle
Sharpen my arrows
Pull the hair back
For keen sight
Focus on the target
Hmm a fear holding back?
Pull
Release
Not so bad
Negatives opinions from another
Pull
Feel the muscle in my arm stretch with me
Release
Pressure of being forced
Quick Pull
Release
You're not good enough
Pull Release
You don't belong here
Pull Release
Give up
PULL RELEASE
Gather those arrows back for the next round
Link the blood off the tip
A ferocious grin

Nakita Beauclaire

I have suffered years with endometriosis. Because of my level of pain I had a hysterectomy before the age of 30 while single and without children. I understand I needed to have the medical procedure for my health. But sometimes I do greive something I'll never get to experience. Today was a stressful day and these thoughts can to me as I tossed in bed and could not sleep. Maybe these words can help other women express a subject that is hard to except or talk about. more…
