She Has An Independent Mind. Poem by William Jackson

She Has An Independent Mind.

Rating: 5.0


She is brilliant, lovely, and successful,
and she has an independent mind;
no one tells her what to do,
and yet she is gentle and kind.

Still, she likes the best of everything
including men as stunningly beautiful as she is.

She'll let you know if you'll be her lover,
and she will make you mad with desire,
and stay with you for as long as she likes.

Then she'll tell you its over,
and you'll put up with it too
and continue to love her
even when she finds someone else
because there is nothing more
you can do.

In every way she is a lady, a heart breaker,
and a source of joy and sorrow.

I wish to God I did not like her.

Wow. The last piece I read, the writer had read my mind and then written it with wonderful clarity. This time, you read my lover's mind... and write it perfectly..... for better or for worse indeed, is the question eternally posed. t x

Oh, how some women like to have that kind of control over a man! Unfortunately, they will never be truly happy, because no man will ever be good enough for them. Excellent piece, Will. LInda :)
