Phenomenal woman by Maya Angelou

Phenomenal Woman








Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman

Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

dúvida

Dúvida



não sei se era amor
ou se amava o amor
com que me amavas

não sei se é egoísmo
ficar no seio da concha
que nos dá guarida no perigo

não sei se é eterna insatisfação
ou se já nasci assim
dividida entre o que sou
e aquilo que preciso ser

estou aqui
mas a minha alma está além
sou gente
mas não sei se sou alguém

Poema para o dia de São Valentim

Fechei-te a porta
E troquei a fechadura
Entraste pela janela

Corri os estores
E cerrei as cortinas
Entraste pelos fundos

Tranquei o portão
E soltei o cão
Entraste pelo coração
