Woman.

19 Things I Love.

1. How easy it is to break me into pieces,
Manipulate such a weak heart that.

2. How easy I rebuild myself.
You may break me, yet the pieces are never too small for me to glue back together.

3. How hard I love.

4. How easy it is for me to turn my back on men who take advantage of my naïveté. I can never love you more than I love myself.

5. How my eyes seem to shine at the thought of you, but then again at the thoughts of money, makeup, bubble baths, golden hoop earrings, and satin dresses.

6. How my body has many curves and twists, mountains as breasts, and beehives for hips. My body spreads for me and only me.

7. How I say no.

8. How I immediately say yes after no. I want to please every person on this planet.

9. How much pain I've been through, yet I'm still breathing.

10 How much pain I've been through, yet I still love.

11. How a smile etches across my lips as my fingertips graze your skin, I love your skin.

12. How brown your skin is. It seems as though God himself poured chocolate over a man so beautiful, life itself hates you. But I love chocolate.

13. How you're shy, but everyone wants to know your every move. How people take a liking to me because you do.

14. How you love me. But you only love me because I love me. You see the adoration I have for myself, therefore you adore me. You always loved a woman that couldn't break.

15. How strong I've become.

16. How my walls are tight enough for your love and your love brings me both joy and sorrow.

17. How I love. How I adore.
I love everything about you, but I adore everything that I am.

18. The knowledge I have. I own enough to educate the children you dream of having, but being a wife was never in my plans. Neither were you.

19. My back holds the brands that I cried for. I cried and screamed, sobbed as they sore into the skin of my back like an unpleasant leather. But those brands are my hurt, and my hurt is only beginning of my humble kingdom.
