A Woman Of Words
i am a woman
of words and
though you can not
hear me speak them
you can listen to
my writer's voice
and know that
this is me speaking
that my words spring
from my heart
i am a woman
who thinks much
and cares deeply
for all mankind
one who fights
for justice and peace
who places a high value
on life itself
some have mistaken
my meekness
for weakness
for they lack
an understanding
of the components
of true strength
i have been wounded
and yet i have survived
and overcome
many obstacles
i have
through God's grace
come a long way
from where i've been

A Woman's Face Wears Many Masks
a woman's face wears many masks
her precious secrets to conceal
so a man may sit and ponder
if what he sees is truly real
he's a very clear-headed man
who takes his time and sets his goal
he's sure to see the masks diverge
as he taps on the door to her soul

All I Want
the sun, the sun
the sun will rise
just like always
i'll wake, i'll wake
i'll wake alone
without you there
and say a prayer
i'll wonder, i'll wonder
i'll wonder where
you are right now
i'll pray, i'll pray
you're happy now
that's what i want
are you, are you
are you happy now
i would be glad
if you just knew
that's all i want
that's all i want

All In Vain
i keep forgiving you
for all the wrongful
things you do
i've prayed and prayed
you would change
your hurtful ways
but baby, it's all
been in vain
sometimes, i cry
myself to sleep at night
with you lying by my side
your back turned towards me
because my feelings
don't matter to you
and our life together
is slowly falling apart
the bottom line is
i'd be better off
without you atleast
for the time being
and as sad as it seems
my leaving you
is just a matter of time
Faith Elizabeth Brigham
