A Real Woman

A real woman holds her family strong Possesses much power under her arms A real woman lets nothing stand in her path Dose what she’s told no questions asked According to tradition….. I’m not a real woman, are you? A real woman thinks of everyone else Puts them all before herself A real woman place is in the kitchen Never talks but always listens According to tradition….. I’m not a real woman, are you? A real woman has no dreams Her dreams are reality A real woman tends to her family’s needs But can never be free According to tradition….. I’m not a real woman.....nor will i ever be!! A real woman must tend to her husband No matter how un-loving A real woman holds her pain inside her Even when pain sits right besides her According to tradition….. I’m not a real woman…..nor will I ever be!!!

If A REAL WOMAN HAS NO DREAMS BUT REALITY, she would be like statue with no feelings and emotions. I don't think it is an ideal situation
