MADE
WOMAN
I intimidate
a weak man,
not with
my words or my curves,
but with
my accomplishments.
I have the
same degrees as him,
sat in the
same class as he,
Became so
qualified I failed to be his secretary
Failed at
playing second when I have all the qualities to be first.
I love deeply,
But I'm
not desperate.
I wanna
be married and have kids,
But I also
want to be a provider.
I know my
place in a man's world
and that's
not only in his kitchen or in his bed,
I am too
strong for that.
I am his
rib, and bone is stronger than sand.
I love my
man, and he would feel so lucky to have me.
I am a made
woman,
not cos
of my degrees and money in the bank,
not cos
of the fact that I can make knowledgeable arguments
or that
I can switch roles from the boardroom to the bedroom.
I am a made
woman cos in a man's world I stand tall,
In my relationships,
I ensure that my man won't for another lady, fall,
I don't
make him worry about my wants cos I can satisfy them.
I would
be his Beyonce, he won't have a choice but be my Jigga.
You say
I'm proud cos I scare men away,
You say
I'm proud cos I won't marry this or that.
I'm so made
I won't settle for less.
I'm so made
I ate the apple first cos man was blind to explore.
I don't
scare men, unless those scared of success,
I'm not
proud, for I would make a humble wife and make my man proud.
When I say
I do, he would smile till his dying day,
for he didn't
just get a wife,
He also
got a made woman.
