Woman's Worth

Look into the eyes of a woman
And you will see nothing
For your heart is empty and unopen.
Offer your palms
and caress her warm cheeks
Show a smile that will give you her trust
Lend a shoulder for her to lean on
And most of all
Burn your heart with love and desire
Not for her eyes that caught you
Nor the lips that you've been wanting to kiss
Not for her beautiful hair that you
longed to hold
Nor her soft shiny skin you want to embrace
But show the passion
Because of her heart and soul
The passion that enthralled you
The passion that will never lie.

For a woman's worth is not her image
Nor a game that you think is "love"
A woman's worth is her heart
The heart that longs to be loved...

and fought for.
