We Women Who Weather

we will withstand

Which way will we wander

When we wake within

Weightless whispers,

Whimsical wonders,

While we're

Waiting, waiting, waiting?

Will warlike worries weaken

Wild-eyed wishes?

Will waterfalls within weep?

Will wildflower warriors withstand

Wicked wailing wolves

When womankind watches westward

Wanting worth wrought without

Wrongdoings wantonly wetted with workmen?

Wounds won't win.

Wrath won't win.

Whosoever wreaths women's world with wretchedness

Will watch

While womankind

Withstands,

Withstands,

Withstands.

About the Creator

Taylor Markel

Hi Everyone! :)

I LOVE horror, spooky, paranormal, cryptids, and Stephen King. Much (though not all) of my writing is pleasantly infected with such influences. Stay, explore, and come back for more!

Thanks for stopping by - have a great day!
