What a relief
To be a woman
To be a terrified woman
To be a vulnerable woman
To be a always anxious, forever worried, far too loving or far too lusting woman
To be a loud mouthed, moment grasping, baby-bearing, romance obsessed, super delicate, heart aching, weight loss eager, insecure, over passionate, under cooperative, soul throbbing, idol worshipping, elegantly swearing, cuddle needing, attention seeking - yet always grabbing, breath taking, strong, and beautiful woman

We aren’t given enough credit
In no way am I asking for recognition but
I think it’s important that women celebrate themselves
I think it’s important that women continue to educate themselves, uplift themselves, speak for themselves, stand up for themselves, take care of themselves, touch themselves, and forever and ever love themselves
Far more than anyone ever could
It’s important that we remain ourselves, for ourselves
And stay true to everything and everyone that makes sense to ourself
Sometimes we get caught in the idea that we should be or look like others but all of our flaws are what make us so goddamn beautiful And sometimes I don’t want to be pretty
I wanna be fucking powerful
I wanna be approached like a woman and not a piece of meat
I want a man to look me in my eyes and say “What a relief. A woman who loves herself”
