African Woman
How I have disrespected and defied The diamonds between your thighs No shame extends beyond the auxiliary, For the penalty of such lust remains eternally, But your forgiveness is complementary, You gave reason for me to be And see beyond my average identity And I thank you for your perceptive nature African Woman! I truly see now that the truth of your touch Lies not in the physical But your spiritual warmth that tames my typical mortality, And you off all existence remain to embrace it Despite the downfall I have dragged you through, Indeed you prolong to be The force that keeps my heart beating, You love me Even though the mental of a young man, Been seeking only one thing, to see you with open legs, And sweaty palms so he can remain to have scars on his back, And then chain you down completely, You still came to me, and handed your love unconditionally, Like women of before your time Many to marry one man, the exploitation was undefined But your eyes looked beyond that, for your soul always divine, You are by far, the eve mother of my growth, I love you (unfinished poem)
