Sometimes I become so angry with love
I want to punch it right in the face
I want to yell and scream and cry
I'm so upset that I even allowed it in my space
I was fine and dandy
Doing my thing
No tears, no loneliness
Just me being me
And one day love came and made me smile
I enjoyed the indescribable feeling it brought
So like a fool I let love stay for a while
A while turned into what seemed like forever
I just knew that love and I would make it
I knew we would last forever
And then reality came by and proved me wrong
It introduced me to heartache
And sad love songs
I thought love had my best interest at heart
Instead it left me all alone in the dark
So the next time that I see you love, it's on!
There's no way I'm going to let you get away
With doing me wrong
Unless, you're sorry....
Are you?

The best thing we could ever do
Is be honest with ourselves
Sometimes we have to be real and admit
That our hearts should remain on a shelf

Some of us are still too wounded
For someone to entertain it
If we could be honest enough
We could even admit we're still damaged

As they saying goes
Yes, the truth does hurt
But if we lie to ourselves about being healed
The pain only gets worse

True, no one wants to suffer
Especially from a broken heart
If we don't take the time to mend ourselves
Our heart will forever remain in parts

We have to take the time to become whole again
To allow our broken parts to heal
When our heart is ready it can be repaired
And love will be it's seal

For you
I don't mind
Being a fool

For you
I will go
Anywhere you ask me to

For you
I will do
Whatever you want to

Yes, I will
For you
And only you....

I do but I don't
I can but I won't
Let you go

I have to honestly ask myself
What is it that I'm holding on to?
Is it just the idea of you?

Maybe this isn't really love
I'm not sure if the feelings I feel
Are a placebo or real

All I know
Is that whenever you come back around
I hold on and don't want to let go

The mistakes I've made
Would put these new age girls to shame

Am I proud?
Nope

Am I embarrassed?
Not at all

It is because of my very flawed past
That I can currently stand tall

It is because of the beautiful mistakes I've made
That I know that I'll stand up again
Anytime that I fall

So they ask me
Are you ashamed of your past?
And I answer
No, not at all

We're smiling
Enjoying each other's company
We're happy
Flirting, engaging one another
I have butterflies from the feel of your touch
I'm on cloud nine, because I'm with you
You tickle me, I laugh
I playfully punch your chest
We gaze at each other
Sharing an intimate moment
You pull me in for a kiss
You lean in
Softly place your hands on my face
Before I can feel your sweet lips
I wake up, panting, dreaming....
Again

I am a woman
But there's no need
For me
To roar

You can see
The very essence of me
As soon as my pedicured toes
Hit the floor

From the gloss on my lips
Down to my painted fingertips
You can see
That I am very much so
A woman

Not to mention
The glide in my walk
The femininity that flows from my lips
Whenever I talk

Take once glance at me
And you can surely see
That I am indeed
A woman
