Maya Angelou once wrote a poem that said a woman is a woman phenomenally
I have become that phenomenal woman, but she never mentioned vulnerability
I'm strong enough to handle the loneliness of single life
But sometimes I crave that touch for someone I love at night
And I am proud to have a house at the age of 23
But I can't always enjoy it without someone to share it with me
I bask in the knowledge that one day " will finish school and be a journalist
But when I win my first Pulitzer prize who will I share it with
I have so much unconditional love that I have in time developed for myself
But how I long to hear those four letters from the mouth of someone else
As a woman people say I'm needy for affection
Someone in need takes what they can get, but I use my own discretion
I credit myself as being an average woman with extraordinary commitment
But without that equal, that rival, I still wouldn't reach contentment
I don't need anyone thats my "strong black woman" attitude
But I want to share my life with someone, someone I can include
Everyday a person lives they die a little more
But if a person is not dying for that special love what are they living for
Phenomenal right? thats the word she applied
And I second that word with all my heart... Maya Never Lied
