A thousand contradictions

I am a thousand contradictions.

A mosaic of shattered glass and imperfect art.

I am a woman.

A misunderstood vessel that has manifested into existence.

And within my very soul, there’s an eternal push and pull.

A desperation for control.

A craving to be loved and admired.

A longing for loneliness to ponder what I am.

A woman is a controlled madness personified.
