🔥 She is not a woman
(A poem to her you don't survive, just love)

She is not a woman.
She is the Eye of Odin —
a look that sees your lies
before you know you're lying.
An eye that knows what you carried
when you came to her naked,
but not honest.

She is Thor's wrath —
not anger,
but judgment.
A storm that doesn't shout,
but roars inside you
until you stand there –
trembling, but pure.

And behind it all:
Loki's cunning.
A smile that lies.
Words that dance.
Love with claws.
She can love you and destroy you
with the same hand.

She is not a woman.
She is the saga,
she is judgment,
she is fire and the grave.
And you love her
because you know:
you will never find your way home
from her.

keep me wrong to make me right,
hold me down and make me strong,
pull me in just to stand me up,
I've been your canvas all along
Do I look like a doormat?

The moon slowly rises in the east,
And taints the mist an eerie glow,
My will is strong,
Defiant of the night!

The lonely night whirls crisp sparkles
Into interminable eternity,
I heave a sumptuous breath
To make me brave!

And long before the slumbering dawn
Dreams of even waking up,
I’ll press my cheek against your back
And slip my arm around you!

— The End —
