Brave Woman

She is the bravest my eyes have ever seen A lion bows, in shiver and fear I am on my knees for I can not believe A woman so beautiful, among us she breathes… I offer this world and everything within to her feet… I say proudly that I will protect her with fists… She smiles, then gently she says to me… I am a woman, strong and I do not need Protection, for I may seem fragile But I am stronger than steel… I do not know what words to speak… For I desire her love, and love her miserably… But I have only my heart to offer And she deserves better than me… It does not matter that I love her endlessly… She lives in a world that the devil dreams to flee… And yet she stands strong with a smile shinning through her lips… With a laugh musical, poetry to my ears… She is a brave woman…gentle and free
