I Am

I'm a woman 
At once vulnerable and strong,
Able to hurt and be hurt in return.

Treat me well and the rewards
Will be everlasting,
My love is constant

Treat me badly
And I will erupt with a different passion
Take cover and hide.

I contain  emotions
So great, sometimes I feel,
I'm about ready to explode

Hi Lou

There is no messing around with this one, it lays it on the line, the message is: don't mess with me and I'll give you all my love and more. You are a power house of emotions which can go either way. You are a warrior full of passion.

I love it. Brilliant poem, honest, steadfast and determined. "I am" perfect title

Love Mand xxxxxx

The only thing...

predictable about a woman, is that they are going to be unpredictable! One never knows what might make them erupt! You have some good thoughts here, maybe just a bit of smoothing out, and it will be a great poem. ~ Love and hugs, ~ Gee
