Mystery of a Woman

A woman is like an ocean,
You will drawn to her
She has this aura, 
 you only get at sea.
When you step into her, 
she makes you feel different.

Her emotion is like a wave
Rumbling and tumbling
You have to handle her with care.
Rising and falling like a tide
Don't go near if you cant swim.

Just like the sea, she has a lot bottled inside her
She can spit it at will, be glad if she rarely does.
It takes an expert to search her out.
At a glance you will see beauty,
Inside of her lies a greater treasure.

Have you ever seen a storm before?
Reminds me of a ladies temper
If calm, the world is good,
If Ignited can raze down a mighty structure.
If you treat her right you'll be at peace.
