I am different women
Covered by layers of past
My sins are malicious
My heart is black and white
I scrape drily at the grey parts
Seeking for a reason,
Why I dance to tunes of temptations,
How I wiggle my waist to its drum
As I snub my soul’s warnings
I know forgiveness awaits me
So I sway drunkenly
Dragging my feet across the red sands
Slowly caressing the earth with my toes
I closed my eyes and raised my hands
Dancing sorrowfully,
For the women beneath me
The many women I am….
