Structure of a Woman (Free verse) by al-naafiysh I am a complex structure
With no fancy architecture
When my architect built me
He already knew what I would be
I was built to love and understand
And to achieve and demand
He built me durable and resistant
And able to cope with or without assistance
Resistant to those who want me to fail
And accepting to those who want to see me prevail
He built me with the ability to accept what I can not change
And to explore what may seem foreign or strange
He gave me the gift of Creativity and Versatility
Along with Endurance and Humility
But I come with No-Warranty
Because I am only human
So there is no guarantee
My lessons will be trial and error
And my inspiration will be what I see in the mirror

But I think you do have fancy architecture.
It's sad that being built to love and understand, we're often hating and misunderstanding.
"Nothing is more deceitful," said Darcy, "than the appearance of humility. It is often only carelessness of opinion, and sometimes an indirect boast."
In your case, I'd say it's the indirect boast. But that aside, Womens always fancy themselves as "complex" creatures. The reality, I'm afraid, is heavily laden with shame: http://tinyurl.com/2bxrqo 190 view(s)

It's not bad. Just far from what it can be.
