ivy ; 

a girl born with gold dust on her lips and salt on her cheeks. a girl born to a family of three. now four. a girl born to carry on the legacy. to shoulder the weight. to dream as large as the walls of her room. as large as the statues in her books. 

a girl born to rise above the rest. a girl born during the longest night, she took her steps on the longest day. 

a girl with promises dripping from her lips like honey. 

a girl who can wield a spear with the ease that she can fling a knife at a target. a girl who can curse as loud as her father. who can sneak as quietly as her three older brothers. a girl who can throw a punch as easily as she can throw a kiss and a wink.  

a girl with a name like a crawling vine.  like poison.
