There's a picture of a man
On a beach holding me,
Kissing me,
With love for me,
And through him I can see me.
I see strong
Breathing in grace,
Rending a could be from a would be
As I finally see in a reflection of his eye's mind
That I'm a woman again.
I've told those lies.
Ran from places
Far from faces
Who carried their traces of truths I dare not breathe near,
Lest I wake them.
I've known terror, child;
I've been the whispers in ears of mothers of sons,
"She'll ruin him."
And I'm a woman again.
Hear a tear?
Turn your head,
Pay heed to the dead that I live for.
Laughter trespassing your ears?
Face my world,
If you'll know my world,
Suck out all this joy with me -
Not despite me -
You might see
A spotlight, a darkness, I'll know no shame for needing
Arms around my face, sometimes.
But I'm a woman again.
I've seen you, hell.
I know your face, heaven.
The only gravity I sense tells me that I can fly.
I'll clean the floors of halls of shame.
Cook meals of joy.
Bear children for all possibles of worlds.
Inhabit the prisons of women in chains.
Run corporations with my testosterone-driven mind.
Fight wars with guns, with love.
Break ceilings as I crawl underneath floors.
I'll be fear, I'll be hate,
I'll show you beauty in ten-thousand ways.
And I'll love you for all of my days.
God damn you,
I'm a woman again.

You ladies - along with a very few select others - restore my faith in women over and over. Thank you for that.

I wont pretend, like some men to know the heart or struggles of women, but i feel they are kindred to me more than men so this i offer the only thing i can my words that come after reading this poem. I know running, its a theme for my writting and i know the psychology behind it its a hard thing to do its even harder once you get where your going because you will still be running. i appreciate how you set up your flee only to turn around on that journey recliam what you are, a woman, and be strong any way you can. not letting social norms hinder your evolutionary journey of conscience and self worth. and finally i appreciate you, just you, for whom ever you are at any point, through the bitchy days, the tears, the smiles, the quick wit and the 100 ciggerettes, dags i appreciate you everyday.

Even though I don't know you, your beautiful spirit shines threw, keep shining :)
