I Wrote a Poem
I am a strong woman and I will not apologize for it
A truly strong woman is a force that is so very dynamic
A woman whose strength comes natural and is somewhat majestic
It is an innate inclination, impulse and drive
She loves and accepts herself completely, knows shes not perfect yet and still she strives
Strong women need strong men, strong men feel strong women is what theyre made for
It seems fitting to see word of mouth reveal that muscle in true form weighs so much more
Some men need a woman weaker than they
So they can partake in a staged 'save the day'
There is no courage no strength and no valor in that
If you ask me, I say that ***** pretty wack
A real woman needs a real man to stand up and say
'Im attracted to your strength, it's a challenge to me
A chance for me to show you and I both how strong I can be'
A mans strength is not defined by his ability to control
Nor his ability to dictate, write or moderate a show
If youre looking for the definition of a strong man go back a few lines
An individuals strength is defined the same way across gender lines
For one to be strong enough to hold another
Support must be given, much more than a lover
Its constant giving of your self but by giving, receiving
And the security from knowledge that neither is leaving
Because both forces are required for each individuals breathing
Therefore neither would cause the others heart any grieving
I am a strong woman and I will not apologize for it
Some men gain superficial strength and revel in a womans pain
Like a childhood bully playing elementary school games
He gains false esteem from a woman who is somewhat stregnthless
As if her inability to move were an indication of his greatness
I am a strong woman and I will not apologize for it
I know admission to my heart and emotions is a prize
A man must treasure it while he has it because he'll lose it with lies
A strong woman can bear all the strife in the world
But will only choose to do so for a man who'd never imply she could would or should
I am a strong woman and I will not apologize for it
A strong woman is no more in control of how she feels than anyone else
Shes merely choosy, for she knows completely the full value of her self
She is not foolish, nor unintelligent, unreasonable, short-sighted or vainShe recognizes clear fault lines, indicating inability to bear substantial strain
If giving of herself, her emotions and heart proves to be painful more often than not
And all that she is, is more than he can hold compounded with lack of appreciation for the all that hes got
Then here lies the choice to cross a line that divides many women
You see, some women would simply stay and keep right on givin
Some might even confuse their choice to endure sustained pain
With strength, courage or love but that's really a shame
Because its the woman who has love of self paired with strength and courage deep in her being
That is able to stand and walk away so securely, its almost as if gods given her a higher level of seeing
She is able to see for her self, that she must pull it all right back in
Her heart, love, emotions, yes all that she has given
I am a strong woman and I will not apologize for it
The strong woman is not bitter, not angry or scorned
She mearly yields to her wisdom as if shes been warned
She does not blame anyone and is grateful for the love that she shared
She is comfortable on her own, she need not be paired
She knows that what she wants, needs, desires and deserves
Exists somewhere, and until it finds her she'll take what life serves
I am a strong woman and I will not apologize for it
