Crimson red

i sit on my throne in crimson red
no shame in my shoulders
for i am worthy of my place
let not the curves of my body
falter your steps
for my femininity does not touch
the steel of my determination
it only adds a grin to my lips
and desire to your gaze
i sit on my throne in crimson red
no shame in my shoulders
for i am worthy of my place
reminding you that my womanhood
takes nothing away from my human value
as it adds nothing to yours
