WHAT AM I
...A simple question
I ask...
What am I?
Am I some thing
That to you
Is amusing
Or a thing
So repulsive?
I wonder
Am I an object
Of mere beauty
To be admired
Only?
What if you
Touch me
What if you
Dare to love
Me...
Will I shatter
And will you
Break
Or will we both live
To face
Radiantly another
Day?
What am
I?
A pointed, sharp
Blade...
Or a blunt object
Useless?
Well you might
Not know
The true me
But I do...
Am a woman
Without whom
The world
Would be not...
What am I?
I am life
In abundance...!
