It takes a lifetime to become what is desired
and suddenly I realise I’m not what I wish to be.
I am woman.
And while I take my time, I am yours
in the ordinary ways which are so like a woman,
and I am woman.
Who said love is an easy affair? Call it an affair! The reason for existence
Share every time you made it, or when you failed,
here I found myself again. I am woman.
