I am my hair, my eyes, my lips
I am my chin, my neck, my shoulders
I am my breasts, my belly, my ass
I am my vagina, my legs, my toes
I am Woman
Hurt me
Wound me
Reject me
Devastate me
I am still here
Still Woman
There is no denying it
I am Woman
More than the sum of my parts
Me
Woman
Strong
Deal with it Mother Fucker
I give
I give you me
And this
You strike at my most vulnerable place
My belief in myself as a woman
Why
Why is woman not enough
Why am I not enough
Why
Here I am
Here I stay
Why
Why do I
Why do I give
Why do I want to
Because I love
When will the pain overwhelm the love?
Only time will tell
Only time
May the pain you inflict
May the pain I allow
end
Before the love dies

Heavy. I take a Friday off, and this is what I miss. Sounds like you were having one hell of a day?? :-(
It was a heavy day/night/day-several weeks ago...things are okay here most of the time but those bad times are pretty damn bad when they happen. I like the poem even after everything calmed down so here it is.
Boy do I hear you. Mot's dad called us the other day to see if we were ok. The last time he'd seen us, we were battling it out. When we battle, we do it right. It's ugly. :-)
