Cut Her Some Slack

By Dawn Robertson

May/2017

From a beautiful land 

Way before time

A vision was had

That a woman was right

For eternity following 

Men would truly try

To tear down that woman

And make her cry

Men always thinking

A woman's easier to control

Without self confidence 

Without friends or her goals

But the contrary realism

Is far distant from that

They just want their man

To love them back

Woman sacrifice and go without

And not say a word

They keep things inside

And bury their hurt

Until one day she just lets it out

Often years in the making 

She purges the pain

Often crying and shaking

Then she is good again

And just carries on

Creating a better life for others

With her wings on

So the next time you feel

That your woman is crazy

You must think again

She is far from lazy

Just take five minutes

And cut her some slack

Let her know you see her struggles

And that you have her back

You will become even closer

And she will love you even more

There's nothing better to have

Then a woman you adore

She will glow like the heavens

And make you feel complete

Because she is born to love

And you are born to receive
