Perhaps, you were born kneeling and crying expecting a kiss of mercy and touch of love Perhaps, you were not born strong and feisty seizing the smiles on the faces that saw you but remember, woman you were never weak. . You may be the kind of woman that men want to keep and you can let them keep you; hold you, grasp you, clutch you, anything- if it means that they can get a lingering sense of what a woman feels like But don’t let them squeeze away the very soul of you; what makes you you don’t whimper wordlessly while their knuckles turn white from holding onto you so tight. . You may be the kind of woman that men want to write about and you can let them weave you into words, phrases stories, metaphors, anything- from the curves of your smile to the dips of your hips let them frame you into pages But don’t let them ink your innocence with dark shades of night or color you frail when you’ve only ever been valiant throughout your life . You may be the kind of woman that men want to love and you can let them love you; kiss you, care for you praise the delicacy of your being and the strength that lies within But don’t let them adorn you with mere adjectives of the common- “Pretty” “****” “hot”, and whatnot You are worth more than just words that are meant to capture you into feelings you are bold, like the text on my computer screen you are hope, like that hidden in the Sun you…are beautiful. . You are a woman a human a mother, a sister, a daughter, an equal. . And yes, perhaps You were not born strong and feisty, but remember, woman you were never weak You are the whisper of the wind singing in our ears ‘Carpe Diem’ you are our yesterday today and tomorrow . But above all- You are a woman And that should be enough.
