I just want to be loved for who I am. Not some plastic girl in a plastic world
The age of implanted breasts, fake nails, fake hair, Fake bake, lypo, tucked, reconstructed anorexic bodies To be natural authentic woman in an unnatural world Connected to mother earth, universe, life and spirit Who am I? Why am I here? What is my life's purpose? I wanna know! To look in the mirror and see With self-acceptance not self-criticism See what's right with me Not what's wrong with me Return to simplicity, Rid myself of complexity Love my wrinkles knowing the life's wisdom Gained with those lines—A wise woman Grace is pouring down through the crown of my head I'm through with feeling like the walking dead Energy rising up through the souls of my feet I am seeing myself as whole and complete I've hung on the cross; I've been burned at the stake Until my soul no more could take I'm embracing my shadow, accepting my light From deep within I've fought a valiant fight I once was lost but now I'm found My feet are standing on solid ground I've played the role of the victim and the martyr These roles suit me no longer I've bled at the hands of my father I've bled at the hands of my mother I've bled at the hands of society I've bled at the hands of my lovers Goddess, through the depths of my hell I have found your pure love Spread out before me Like the wings of a dove I get it now, freedom from strife I see beyond this illusion that we call life I am pure in spirit, strong and free No one can take that away from me The energy is rising From the depths of my soul The roots of women before A collective conscious to behold I fight the good fight Armored for battle Emerge victorious Beliefs no longer needed dismantled I settle, sit still and quiet my feminine soul I know now that I may never know the full story Of who I am or why I am here yet I am open to the journey, the crooked path that lies before me I am a Goddess |
