But in that life
She altered the course of history
Claiming to be
The messenger
She rode bravely into battle
Even though she was just a girl
A girl of 17
She fought for her country
She fought for her ruler
The Prince
And the Lord
She did the incredible
The unexplainable
And won for her country
Then everyone turned against her
They left her for dead
In the hands of the church
Claiming her to be a heretic
Not even the prince helped her
Her only helper now was
The Lord
The Lord did his best
But in the end
She did not make it
It wasn’t until
Many centuries later
That the church realized
She was indeed
The messenger
