Woman

Special tribute to all the women in General

She wore her scars like jewelry
Her tears became a pond
Her pain the fishes
Her dreams the corals
And her Being the sea Princess

Her eyes were deeper than the endless depth of the oceans
Her smile was like the full moon on a dark night

Who would say she had walked on a journey that was full of fire and storms
Every moment was a battle …..she fought

Despite the wounds and several falls
She refused to quit and walked on…
The Demons of betrayal…hate and exploitation
Stubbornly followed her ….

Many times she fell into the darkest pit from where the angel of death stared into her eyes….
She looked back and blew a kiss on his face…leaving him startled ..

Then taking a deep breath she would stand up
Wipe off her dress ….shut her eyes and relax …..leaving Fate with no choice but to let her move forward
