Because I Am a Woman

A woman didn't choose to become a woman; it is a gift and a blessing.
Her gender should not be questioned, it is rather be a victorious quest,
A valuable claim for the humanity.

A woman should not be overpowered & overshadowed with threats, with royal promises and whatever makes her stars fallen to the ground; she's not another square in a round box.

She flirts with care, she is not more on logic but she just love who you are. She can be your senses; her sensitivity does not mean a product of her weaknesses.
She is not a possession, she believes, she is a defined generation; the best creation.

She doesn't need to own universal gravity to pull your loyalty, she just work quietly, a peaceful actress, she is no  drama. She waits for you, with your meals prepared, shirts and pants ironed, medicines checked when you are sick, she is not getting certificates of merit and recognition in the full house;
She is a world class ironlady.

A woman don't have to be in a cage. The world needs her; she is a mural of love, understanding, respect, identity, talent, tolerance and strength.
Remember, you became you because you were inside her.

She is a celebration. She is life.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
