I am a woman

I am a woman.
Impractical
Imperfect
Insecure

I am a woman
a breathing work of art
I have the power to enchant you
with a simple husky laugh
I have the power to pull you in
by a gesture or a phrase

I am a woman
I am vulnerable sometimes
yet still I find the strength to mingle laughter with my tears
to stand tall in the face of what I fear

I am a woman and the world has said
that I must be tall and lanky
and Have a million mile legs

I am a woman
I laugh to loud
eat chicken wings
and play in in mud puddles sometimes

I am a woman
I am me.
