a woman
trying to fit in-
to carve a niche
in blockades of time.
emotions make me
those mar me too.
you say I am moody
I know I am moody-
unpredictable too;
which is nothing new.
you try to plunge
into my mind;
I too try to plunge
into it unsuccessfully.
you say you cannot
understand me.
“do I understand myself?”

or for that matter of many women ...who are moody , emotional , working hard to be someone , believing in self ...and smiling when someone says I can understand you or I cannot understand you ...:-)
I'm sure there are a lot of women who feel the same as this poem.
Beautifully expressed! We all just want to be heard and acknowledged for however we are feeling at any given moment. Is that too much to ask? I mean that seriously, but I suppose it does sound a bit funny.
"I too try to plunge

understand me."
I really have to have it.
