I Know A Woman Poem by Tina Rizk

I know a woman
Who runs away from love
Yet believes she deserves to be loved!

I know a woman
Who can give you a thousand reasons to live
Yet looks for one reason that keeps her alive!

I know a woman
Who is silent most of the time
Yet her eyes can't stop talking

I know a woman
Who appears strong in front of others
Yet feels doubtful in front of her mirror

I know a woman
Whose heart seems as hard as stone
Only to hide the tenderness and softness of her heart

I know a woman
Who carries within the sun, the moon, the stars
And the whole universe is seen through her eyes

I know a woman who gathered inside her all contradictions
Only to survive
