The Pride of a Woman
The pride of a woman
A woman
She is so beautiful
A woman
She is so tender
A woman
She is so emotional
A woman
She is so humble
A woman
She is so caring
A woman
She is sensitive
A woman
She is a mother
A woman
On and on she is
The pride of a woman
just for a culture she is
Abuse tender,
At the age of 12
In africa
A man at his 60's
Pay for her as a wife
As culture demand
What a culture
The pride of a woman
Sade is on exile
She got married
At age 11
And ever since her life
Change
For more 12 years
She lived as a slave wife
To his rich religious husband
At 73 he died
As culture and custom permit
His first son will take over
his late fathers wives and wealth
The pride of a woman
Sade could not take it
any more
And she took a risk of her
Life
As She try's migrate to Italy
On the way she died
On a sea with a rubber boat
Her body was never found
Till date
The pride of a woman
Say no to abuse of woman
In the third world countries
Say no to early marriage
Stop the killing of female
Stop the rape of our beautiful
Women
In Africa a culture of
Early marriage
Rule so high
The pride of a woman
A woman
Is also a human
Not a man's property
