She is never a loser

by hani   May 22, 2007


When her torch burns and sings,
She is a Goddess
When she is vicious and vindictive,
She is a Harridan
When she is holy and pure,
She is a Virgin
When she gets angry at them,
And rediscovers herself,
She is a Feminist
When she takes him for better and worse,
She is a Wife
When she calms his hurricanes,
And soothes his passion,
She is a Lover
When she sacrifices herself,
She is a Mother
When she finds happiness in solitude,
She is a Spinster
When she prays, begs, and pleads,
She is a Nun
When she walks in the streets,
And earns at night,
She is a Lady of Pleasure
When she wears a red dress,
With a purple hat,
And sits on pavements,
To take a breath
She is an old lady
But SHE is never a loser, never a failure

That's what she is,
That's how she is,
Simple and Plainâ?¦
