Something to Remember...


She is a wife, a treasure that should be beloved! From the ground, she walks on to the air she breathes above She is a mother, a precious gift! Without her, life would not exist She is a friend, never to be bought! No amount of money could ever come to thought She is a sister, so valuable! Should cherish her at every moment Through her pain, she laughs and helps comfort you When you are struggling, she helps you through However, yet, all we do is complain steady increasing her pain Leaving her feeling nothing but stressed even depressed Pushing her away without thinking twice Not caring for her, not there to wipe away her tears as she cries. She was mentally, physically beaten and abused. Minimizing her pain telling her she is nothing, and will always be used. She swallows her pride, puts all her feelings aside. As we need to do to be free. They say bitch, slut, hoe... Reply with pride and dignity; I am not! You can call her nothing but, A Strong, Educated, Loving, Caring, Giving, Surviving, Understanding and Powerful WOMAN! ....so worthy, beyond worthy Thank You!
