She’s beautiful

But not in a conventional way

She’s fragile

But it’s amazing what she can take

She’s powerful

But falls to pieces by the strength of a word

She’s emotional

But careful so she doesn’t get hurt

She’s tender

But tougher than you think that she is

She’s bold

Will see it through till the very end

She’s patient

But she knows just what it is that she wants

She’s anxious

But that’s what being broken down does

She’s forgiving

But don’t let that make you mistake her for weak

She’s healing

Tries to help in all that she speaks

She’s here now

Don’t you let her slip from your grasp

She wants love

but she won’t beg you or ask

She is every woman

Imperfect, but kind

A breakable capable human

Weary but resigned

To love where love is needed

love poems
