Womanly Paradox

I want my independance
But occasionally, please take charge.
I am an emotional creature,
Counter-balance me with your analytical thoughts.
I sacrificially pour out all of myself,
I need someone to single-mindedly invest in me.

I want recognized for my mind,
But I want to know I can seduce any.
I can be insecure and full of fear,
Yet self-sufficient and bravely face danger.
I will not tolerate unwanted advances,
But I desire to be forcefully swept away.

I can be the ultimate nurturing force,
But my anger lays waste entire communities.
I am known as an eternal victim,
Yet I have changed history time uncounted.
I can be grounded in reality
While I walk in romantic fantacies.
