Poem

I will cry for what was

I will cry all the things that used to be

But I will not stand for what you did to me

Even tho you think I deserve it.

I will be confused

I will not know what to do

I will feel like everyone disagrees with my decision 

But I will stand on my own

If I have too,

And I will have sisters

Who also have been thru the things that I have 

Never forget, I will remember you always. 

But not in the sense that you think

Because I will stand, alone or with my own village.

Because I am a woman. 

Because I won’t back down for what I think is right.

Because I will fight for myself, never will I let you drag me down again. 

I am woman.
