A Woman's Security Poem by Elaine Oxamendi Vicet

A Woman's Security

Rating: 5.0


Security?
In today's world we all want to be secure
yet what is this thing called security?

Is it
security that keeps me free from terrorists
Is it security that keeps me safe from financial debt?
Is it security
that keeps my loving heart from being broken
by a cheating heart?
Or is it a mind game that has physical pain-
this thing called
Security? !

I need it!
I want it!
I deserve it!

I want to be secure in love, finance, romance
when I do my penance
I want security-emotional, family, friendship
loving, kind peace of mind security!

And no I do not want it all!
I just want what has been promised.
So I simply play my part
as I play a big part in my own
Security!

Just the other day i was contemplating the question of what it is that all women want. Although each woman is different; what is the universal quality that they are all looking for? I arrived at the conclusion that they all want security; whether it be financial, emotional or physical security. This poem has confirmed my belief. Thanks for a nice poem and for answering my question.

Apart from the external security threats and concerns spreaded throughout the world, I think its a sense of feeling, love and carefulness inside the heart and the mind of a woman that makes herself secure. Good write, Elaine. Best Wishes Naseer

Reading this, I was thinking that a man might use a different word other than security to describe what he wants out of life. I believe that a man wants contentment. That is what he craves in life. Just contentment. A nicely written call for security from a female perspective. Three cheers from me. Hooray, hooray, hooray. GW62
