I am Woman

See me search

See me yearn

For something lost

Something I didn’t get

Or something I gave away too easily

Watch me lie to myself

Self contented in my deceit

Look at yourself

You lie too

Because of your guilt.

I am too sweet to hear the truth

Too weak, you think

See me cry for what you cannot give

Watch me walk away

I leave you longing for what you seek

For what you can never have

My mystery.
