JUST A WOMAN
Damn
I am just a woman
I mean
During my creation
My whole entire body was created
To create
Think on that
The condition of who I am
Is meant to create, give birth to and nurture
Everything
Everyone
Damn
I’m just a woman
JUST!
Yeah
With all kinds of complication that you feel
Is so hard to gather and comprehend
I am the abundance of all the colors
In between the colors
Think about that
The energy of my very being was designed
To take it
Life
No matter how brutal
And make something of it
Then kiss it and make it all better
The performance of my bleeding
Every damn month
Is a constant reminder that
Either I am to physically conceive
And physically give birth
Or it is a reminder that I
Am among the only creatures on the planet
Who have been chosen to do something
So powerful as to bring forth life
Life that comes forth in every aspect that the universe can offer!
And I bring it
Through my womb
Through my love
Through my cooking
Through my nurturing
Through my loving
Through my nursing
Through my comforting
Of the very man
The very children
The very universe that often curses me
Damn
I am just a woman
And way too often
I don’t get to enjoy being a girl
So, I am anxious
Because I have to grow
Yet usher the growth of the world around me
I cry in secret
Because I am often chastised for crying out loud
Damn
I am just a woman
Somebody said that I am paranoid because
I wonder who loves me
I wonder if this will be the state of adoration I have longed for
Or are those fantasies on the TV real at all?
I ask for the least of things
And sometimes am told it’s way too much
Hey. I am just a woman.
I am not asking you for forgiveness
For being who I am
I am not gonna deny that I have needs that you may not even have the desire
To fulfill
But Dammit!
I am…
I am just…
No! I AM A WOMAN!
You would be nothing without my kind
I am a woman
And I deserve to be a girl sometimes
Pour into me all of the goodness you can
Because if I have not been pushed past the breaking point
You know, past that broken and mended and broken and mended and broken again place
I will release a love and care on you and all that you touch
That you will find it so utterly unbelievable
That one person could ever hold that much love and care in their heart
To give
And I
Being Woman
Will freely give!
I am just a woman
I mean
During my creation
My whole entire body was created
To create
