Woman ll
9/11/20
I've passed away just like all my pretty flowers.
I've spent time all alone for hours.
I feel isolated, like I'm trapped in a tower, looking out at everyone but they don't see me.
Becoming a woman is realizing that when you're alone, there is no reason that you shouldn't be alone.
Or expect anything more from anybody else than what already is and has been.
I can't be the girl who builds you
I'm a woman now.
I can't stand by and put your happiness above my own, waiting in neglect
I'm a woman now.
To all the boys who leaned on me and then dropped me so easily
I'm a woman now.
And you still think you're a man.
