Veiled Woman
hurled by someone onto my face,
my fight to keep the veil there failed,
revealing me a woman.
Cultured light was my vision,
my eyes struggle to adjust to the
new light of pure vision and freedom.
I feel free, as a woman.
I try to breathe in the new,
but could only get deep sighs,
the flame of release unbound,
which till now was not, as for a woman.
You never saw the tears,
that wet my delicate cheeks,
nor the sad sighs of frustration,
when you reigned me, of a woman.
Fettered to where I don't belong
I was the other when you were the whole,
my days fell like rotten flowers,
the days of my womanliness.

even i wondered how much you must have gone through inside a mind of a woman, cause at first it didnt click right to me. really great. empowering of a woman, yet how she says what she dealt before, how she says its been hard to get around. Beautiful :)
