Am I Woman?

Am I woman?
Is this why I have to cry?
Any male man
Wouldn't break apart as I.

Am I broken
When I cannot smile and laugh?
Just a token
Of my future epitaph?

Logic rules me
Only when hormonal cues
Leave my brain free
Oh what nature takes for dues!

Panic sets in
As my tear drops get away -
To my chagrin
I cannot cause them to stay

Inside my eyes.
Stinging pain which begs relief,
Swallowing cries,
I am no more my own chief.

Am I woman?
Is it problematic now?
Femaleness can
You be cause, and if so how?

Am I woman?
Can I ever cease to fall
Victim human
To my own emotions' call?
