Inner Woman -
Bittersweet
When I was twelve
I held the gift so sweet
Woman’s right to make life
Though still a child myself
My sister’s birthday
Same bitter day
More important
My moment
Passed
She was eight!
I turned eighteen
An adult now
Sweet celebration
With knowledge sure
I could not live
My parent’s wish
I was stuck
In their muck
Bitter truth
Leave
To be me
I wed, a mere
Nineteen
My soul mate found
We were bound
Sweet joy
True love
Bitter curses
Mothers displeasure
The life they dreamed
Wasted
Decades later
Our final goodbye
A last I love you
Before he went,
Sweet release
From pain was his
Bitter tears were mine
Instead
I look back now
Milestones come, they go
Challenge met sweet joy
Each triumph brings sure
Bitter knowledge
Comfort goes
To forge my strength
