SHE

She is mysterious and bright like the Moon hiding in daylight.

A friend, a confidant, a someday lover.

So good at Juggling, cause sometimes her insides resemble a circus, littered with remnants of the clowns that no longer get to play games.

Prodding lions, poking bears but she’s not afraid of stepping into the den.

There's a fight to keep her heart soft, allowing feel, keeping count of each pulse.

Femininity is your strength and never a weakness.

And in your softness there is untold power.

If I don’t make sandwiches and I can't birth babies, I am no less me.

Every moment is a victory, more powerful than pink.

My NO is just as powerful as my YES. 

I stand in the company of the bravest though we may never meet.

While we don’t have a Y chromosome, there is nothing that we lack.

I am woman.
