I wrote and blogged this poem in 2009 and Donald has made an outstanding job of making it more meaningful by making it into a song. This is fantastic!
Girl Soldier -
Injustice, corruption, discrimination she saw.
Deeply entrenched in her society. Ruling all and sundry.
She carried a gun to fight. Gun of truth. Gun of passion. Gun of selfless service.

The Girl-Soldier:
Injustice, corruption, discrimination she saw
Deeply entrenched in her society
Ruling all and sundry
Her youthful innocent heart bleeds
She shields blood and not tears
She was too disappointed to understand
Then she carried a gun to fight
A gun of truth
The gun of passion
The gun of selfless service
Her gun is her passion to make a difference
The courage to be the change
The determination to make a change
There goes the girl-soldier
