A beautiful poetic guest contribution……
I am so much stronger than your shallow eyes can see
and my soul has gone much deeper than your hand has ever reached
so if you suppose you could sell me out
tell the world what I’m all about, then you suppose wrong
I am a river flowing wild, flowing wide and flowing free
I am woman on a journey, one of your toys I will never be
you take one look at my face, you don’t think it matches my hands
you think my life is time that I’m killing, a fortunate circumstance.
yet all your double dealing
and people stepping that has brought you success
is going to lead you to the shadows, make you wish for love’s last chance.
there is something you must remember, before you dip your cup in to my well,
the life that I have that you want to rent is one that will never sell.
I am so much stronger than your shallow eyes can see
and my soul has gone much deeper than your hand has ever reached
so if you suppose to sell me out
tell the world what I’m all about, then you suppose wrong.
I am a river flowing wild, flowing wide and flowing free,
I am woman on a journey, one of your toys I’ll never be.
