This is one of my favorite poems. I tried to pair it with a witchy background that I can share or use as my computer wallpaper. However, I'm just not talented enough to get it to fit and be legible. I'd love to see what any of you could create! Share if you are inspired!!! đđ¤đ
This is for the women who donât give a fuck.
The women who are first to get naked, howl at the moon and jump into the sea.
The women who stay up too late and have sex like they mean it.
The women who know they arenât sluts because they enjoy sex, but human beings with a healthy sexual appetite.
The women who will ask you for what they need in bed.
This is for the women who seek relentless joy; the ones who know how to laugh with their whole souls.
The women who speak to strangers because they have no fear in their hearts.
The ones who wear ânight make upâ in the morning or donât own mascara.
The women who know their worth, who plant their feet and roar in their brilliance.
The women who arenât afraid to tell a [person] to get the fuck out of her heart if [they] doesnât honour her heart.
This is for the women who rock combat boots with frilly skirts.
The women who swear like truck drivers.
The women who hold the people who harass or wrong them with fierce accountability.
The women who flip gender norms and false limitations the bird and live to run successful companies giving âthe manâ a run for his name.
The ones who donât find their success a compliment just because they have a vagina.
Women like Gloria Steinem who, when she was told, âWe want a writer, not a woman. Go home,â kept writing anyway.
This is for the women who drink coffee at midnight and wine in the morning, and dare you to question it.
For the women who open doors for men and are confident enough to have doors opened for them.
Who use ânoâ to be in service for themselves.
Who donât give a damn about pleasing the world, and do sweetly as they wish.
For the superheroesâthe single moms who work three jobs to make it. I salute your resilient, cape-flapping, ambitious selves.
This is for the women who throw down what they love, and donât waste time following societyâs pressures to exist behind a white picket fence.
The women who create wildly, unbalanced, ferociously and in a blur at times.
The women who know how to be busy and know how to plant their feet in the earth and get grounded.
These are the women I want around me.
