Only A Woman

Storm contemplates who and what she is and ask some questions.

Ororo's point of view.

Only A Woman

They think I am untouchable, the Goddess. But I'm not. I'm only a woman. They see me as cold and uncaring, but I care. I have emotions like anyone else.

I hurt and I feel pain and love and hate and I want, but they only see the Goddess. Why can't they see me, Ororo? Why don't they try to reach out to me? Why I'm I alone?

I'll tell you why.

Because I am the Goddess.

I hate her, what they see me as, what I pretend to be.

But I do it for a reason.

If I cry, it rains.

If I get angry, the lightening and thunder flashes.

Do they know all I want to do is cry sometimes?

Or laugh. Or get angry like a normal person.

I have been through so much and I still can't let them see the real me.

I am a Goddess.

I am a Weather Witch.

I am the Wind Rider.

I am Ro to some and Stormy to others.

But it's only an illusion that I project to protect myself.

My name is Ororo.

And I'm only a woman.
