I'm a woman
I'm no object to appease your boredom
Neither am I a slave to bow to the satisfaction of your pleasures
Surely you know I'm no optional punching bag
I'm not immune to hurt humiliation or devaluation
I am human.
I'm no walk on carpet
Rather listen not to my opinion
than pretend to value and say good about it
whereas your actions prove less.
in fact, no accreditation and noticeable obliviousness to hurt and knock on my confidence that brings.
Lure me not with your venomous tongue
For your disguise is opaque
I'm no possession
Nor settlement for debt of your evil doings
For my worth is beyond compare
Demean not my dear presence and essence
Were you born of a log then?
I'm a mess I know
But a delightful chaotic beautiful one
I'm complicated I know
But that doesn't make me any less captivating
I might be a little hard to figure out
Rest assured: for I'm one hell of an adventure
I'm hormonal
That shouldn't be surprising
I'm ridiculous emotional
Yet still I have no fear to express the drought or tide
But it doesn't make me less strong.
I'm not oblivious to charms,
Just considerate and Choosey
Neither am I easy, just friendly.
I'm not a coward
Just cautious
I'm not forward, just mature enough to prepare for the future
I may be a little troubled by my past
I cry myself to sleep at times
Left bare is my vulnerability
My trust can be a given,
But only when earned
And when exploited; it’s my deepest insecurity.
I'm brilliant, gorgeous, forgiving enough to let go
Yet when scorned my fury knows no bounds
For I am a force of nature
I'm uniquely mature; for I can take in and deal so much
Ohh and I'm proud NOT arrogant.
I'm a mother, a daughter,
sister, aunt, wife,
member of a community,
most importantly I'm a child of God
I am that Lovable
BECAUSE I AM A WOMAN
