Life @ Sea
I live in a sea of estrogen
It brought me to this origin
And some days, withholds my oxygen
Swimming as swells grow by every teardrop
Gasping for breath between waves that aren’t controlled by moon shift
Lost of a love one, child birth or touching Apple commercial…same diff
On all sides from childhood, single mother, grandmother, aunts now wife and four daughters
These waters fed me and continue to nourish, test my resolve and inspire
Still regret not adding Toni to “The women I admire.”
The list grows, while many stay parched
Next time, I won’t wait to show appreciation until March
Because I live in a sea of estrogen
It brought me to this origin
And some days, withholds my oxygen
