Just A Woman

I ask you: is there ever a time when a woman is just a woman? She's a mother, sister, and lover, giver of life, and the Queen of Hearts. She's the Yin that balances the Yang, a partner, and the voice of reason. And she's often both the catalyst and the stabilizer men desire. She's a subtle negotiator: an Angel, with a soul and conscience. And the weaver that binds families tightly together with threads of love. She is a kitten to her children, and a tigress when protecting them. So, I ask, is there ever a time when a woman is just a woman?
