She's Always a Woman

Woman, you take my breath away
Not in what radiates off your precious skin
But what lies deep inside of you
 
Head held high
Not letting one moment
Of life slip on by
 
Strength more than a conviction
Capturing every ounce
Of my begging heart
 
Mother to many, daughter to all
Let me be your comfort
The harbor in your shore
 
Lead me
Feed me
Be the answer to my prayers
 
Guide me
Walk beside me
In the waning of our years

Hello Tim. This is a must read out loud entry with emphasis. Read back your words and you will see. With a title such as this I of course had to turn the page. The entry title and you did not disappoint. This is marvelous and poetic. Well done throughout.
