I Am A Woman
I am a Woman
Not an object or animal
I have the power to hold a new world inside me
I am a Woman
Not a form of payment, a burden or property
I have the knowledge of a goddess and the blood of a heroine tainting my veins red
I am a Woman
Not a slut, a shame, or an embarrassment
I have the power to educate, recuperate and alleviate
I am a Woman
Not because I have the body of one, but because of my wit, intelligence and strength
I have the potential to weaken mountains with my determination and persistency
I am a Woman
Not the weaker partner or stupid one
I have both the gentle patience of a queen and the scorching anger of a king
I am a Woman
Not a disastrous mistake or form of perfection
I have both the courage of a warrior and humbleness of a soldier
I am a Woman
Not a victim or slave
I have the power to feed both the soul and body of many
I am a Woman
Not a useless creature or something that should be tamed
I have the ambition to stand strong in times of weakness and rational among spectrums of ignorance
I am a Woman
Not something less than a human
I have an endless light that is more valuable and important than what is on my chest and between my legs
I am a Woman
Another word for leader, chief, conqueror, warrior, captain, and, most importantly, human being.
