Analysis of This Woman Who's Driven By Love



She moves with a ferocity,
As if there are forces inside her
That I can't even begin to comprehend.

Driven by something wild,
Unpredictable and untameable,
She's like a force of nature
That can't be contained.

Maybe it's love that has seized her,
Making her heart beat faster,
Her feet move quicker,
Her eyes sparkle brighter.

She's a lover, that's for sure,
A woman who sees the world
Through the eyes of her heart,
And feels it in every fibre of her being.

Driven by passion and desire,
She's a force to be reckoned with,
A woman who won't be held back
By anyone or anything.

And though I might not understand
What it is that fuels her fire,
I can't help but be in awe
Of this woman who's driven by love.

Joe Strickland

I'm just a regular, blue collar, working stiff who took an interest in writing poetry many years ago but until recently I haven't had a desire to share any with anyone or pursue publication. I'm an unpublished fork lift operator by night, and a day drinker by choice. I can be followed on Twitter @JoeStricklandSC more…
