My wife is an Alpha Female, still fighting even though she is a shell of herself. The day she stops is the day she dies.


Love an Alpha Female if You Dare

If you don't know an alpha female
It is diffcult to understand
Why Her path is not traditional

They are a force of nature
Hearts riding precariously on their sleeve
Who Cry in private when there best efforts
Collapse in front of them

There is no patience
For meaningless phrases
That say nothing

Their focus is forcing events
To comply with their will
Sowing a field of comfortable space

To love them, is difficult
At times Beyond possible
At times beyond rewarding

They do not trust others
To keep them safe
To keep them safe

They do not trust others
To get it right
To get it right

They do not trust others
To share their hurt
To share their hurt

Loving them means understanding fragility
Is their constant demon
Spawning an anxiety riden load of energy

Spent escaping fear of loss
Fear of hurt
Fear of neglect
Fear of lonliness

Control is their trusted tool
To pave their path to peace
Until it isn't

When her storm of kinetic force stops
She is a shell of helplessness
Awaiting her final resting place

A very moving piece, my friend, which I shall applaud.
As something of a fighting female myself, I recognise many of the character traits here. Verses 2, 9 and 12 are especially strong, but I am intrigued also by the repetition of lines in the middle stanzas.
Exquisite writing; thank you for sharing.
