She's Still a Conquerer (Part 1)

She's looking at the sea now
Trying to fill in the emptiness
The emptiness once filled with treasures
Those treasures excited her loved ones
Proud were they of her

She always knew that those giant mountains were conquerable
Since young she's always a conquerer

But things changed as she aged
She realised
there were more conquerers in this world
Some were more dexterous in sailing
Some were as good as her
Well, just good...
nothing much...
 when compared to the greater conquerers

Now she thought she knew it
"Maybe I can't be the best sailor in this whole galaxy"
"But I can be the best for myself"
No pressure
Living comfortably in her own deck
Telling lies to herself that,
"You can't be the best every time"

But,
there's no interesting story  in her life
Life's  just a flat and smooth road for her
No struggles to overcome
No treasures won
Her muscles were weak
Her ship was wrecked
Hopeless was her world

She couldn't take it anymore
She couldn't live like this forever
No adventure, no discovery
Nothing gained...

All this time
She chose to be blinded from this truth
The truth was well-hidden in the basement of her ship
For letting it out means hurting herself
And she didn't want to be hurt.

But now,
She chooses to see it.
