Applaud me for my bravery and forget not my grace for insubordination
Judge me not for my car, my home or my smile
For there will be days of hardships and trials and for you I may be incapable of pushing for that extra mile
Sing to me through the screams and chaos if its love from me that you expect
Make yourself known and heard, your sincerity I’m finding harder and harder to detect
I am not run of the mill nor do I pretend to settle into the comparison
Never needed clarifying but here I am saving you the embarrassment
I breathe my own air and I fight the every day struggles
I am an Independent woman despite at times missing the winter nights snuggles & cuddles
I think, therefore I am… not a quote unfamiliar to me
And If I came as a brand I’d never be the discounted that come in packs of three
I live my life like its golden despite knowing money doesn’t grow on trees
I am a woman of my word no matter these streets I walk filled with dirt and weeds
“It is what it is” I’m sure you’ve heard me repeat
I’m just making it crystal clear that you can save all of your sloppily pasted together deceits
I work hard. I play hard and I love even harder
If a real woman is what you want Then an apology is a very nice starter….
