Home for Runaway Girls 

Escaping the patriarchy 

Standing for princess-ness 

Painting our dresses to protest 

Claiming our rights to be princesses 

Fissures in the sky 

Louise 

Inna 

Bow dresses, colourful knits  

Black belts  

Vichy, a taste of nostalgia 

Comfortable enough to run away 

Meaningful embroideries 

Keep dreaming and resisting 

Win the karate fight  

Fear is my enemy 

Speaking out loud 

When others speak for us 

Princesses have the gift to whisper  

Words are strong 

Bodies are weapons 

To my everyday princesses 

  All the strong girls, close and far 

Being a girl is the most wonderful fight ever
