Single Again
by Barbara Lynn Terry
I am walking away from all the bad
things that are making me sad.
I was told in a word, not to be
the very essence that I sme.
Even though she pretended to accept
the male to female concept,
she still did not find me whole,
the girl that is my soul.
She kept telling me I was inept,
her woman I was to be kept
under her male ego domination
giving a superior connotation.
She thought I could be taught
how to be a submissive tart
but she had no idea I could not,
and would not, play that part.
So back to single I go,
taking things at the ready, and going slow
so as not to stub my toe
and my journey deliberate and steady.
