I am Woman Hear me Roar

I moan in ecstasy

I groan with the pain of childbirth


I cry for joy

I cry for grief


I giggle at first love

I sob for hearts broken


I laugh merrily

I weep bitterly


I speak carefully and profoundly

I talk too much

and without a filter


I bless

I curse


I sing my heart out in sweet incantation

I scream in anger


And someday,

when I am tired

and all utterances

escape my mind and ability


I will quietly and peacefully,

Sigh in death.
