Phenomenal woman....

Beautiful women wonder where all my secrets lie
but unlike them, i've built an amour
that is the perfect size.
I try to give them more... then pause
& i say,
it's the wave in my hair
the stars in my eyes
the rose in my cheeks
the feel of my skin
the lift in my chin
the bridge of my nose
the curve of my lips,
I'm a woman Phenomenally,
Phenomenal woman, that's me.......

Still puzzled, they stare
wondering what else lies beneath it all
looking at a gem so rare
they stare somemore.... then pause
& i say,
it's the glide in my walk
the sun in my smile
the ring in my laugh
the emotions in my tears
the passion in my word
the life in my breath
the feel in my touch
I'm a woman Phenomenally,
Phenomenal woman, that's me.......


I walk into a room
and feel the eyes with every step i take
they swarm around me, like a hub of honey bees
waiting for the mistake they think i'll make.... they pause
& i say,
It's the click of my heels
the arch in my back
the palm of my hands
the love in my heart
the womb in my belly
the ride of my bosom
the strength in my shoulders
I'm a woman Phenomenally,
Phenomenal woman, that's me.......


Men themselves are puzzled
for they know not what they see in me
in vain they try to unravel my inner mystery
try as they might.... they pause
& i say,
it's the feel of my affection
the need for my care
the comfort of my love
the warmth of my kindness
the energy in my hope
the belief in my faith
the truth in my goodness
I'm a woman Phenomenally,
Phenomenal woman, that's me.......


Now you understand
why my head is never bowed,
I never have to brag, shout or talk real loud
but when i pass you by
I know i make you proud.....
Now, i say...
It's the grace of my style
the secret of my elegance
the spine in my confidence
the height of my intellect
the wisdom in my humility
the joy in my understanding
the woman in me....
I'm a woman Phenomenally,
Phenomenal woman, that's me.......

My Friend ....I Think...

Whoever said there were writings on the wall
should show me that wall....
by this time tommorrow,
I'll be no closer to the truth than i was today.
should have seen the signs
letting you into my world
slowly but surely...
Innocently brushing hands;
Taking long walks;
made u feel like a man,
sheilding me from harm.
with you i felt safe
in more ways than one....
I thought it could be love
or maybe like-like
but it was love,
deep, heartfelt love
somehow, i knew you felt it too.
so this had to be friendship. Right?
we switched love stories
in a bid to divert attention from "us".
You found love, I found love....
She's gone now
I'm Still in Love....
Now u love me again....
this has got to be a dream.
what happened to the rules?
i love you but i really like him!!!
why does life have to be so hard
My friend, the one i turn to
where are you now?
now i know what it means
to be with your Soul Mate
but your Kindred Spirit is flying free...
