YOUR worth...

Poem By: Nicol Alverez

     Because I AM a woman i was designed to face childbirth it's simply something i was created for which they claim is a curse thrown upon me by eve but all she did was lead adam to the tree.. he didn't have to eat .. that's like a man to claim a woman for his weakness because I AM a woman I AM defined by my waist size honored for the arch in my back yet to mean for it at the same time.. because of my small stature , song voicing smooth skin .. I AM guide a lower uneven to men because I AM a woman i doomed to never be taken seriously for man to look at me and only see my body and they may think it's the boom and that may be true but that doesn't mean that my body is all i have to offer you .. I AM different yes but just as capable even still opportunities will be denied and they will claim its because i'm unfit when really its my plump lips .. thick thighs swing hips and my cups size.. because I AM a woman i'm good to lie in bed and achieve every single thing that's left in the house to do and they say i can be great but but never better than them because I AM a woman the rights to my body must be discussed they want fetuses to have rights but what about us? and i don't support abortion because i don't believe in killing possibly a healthy baby but you can't talk to me about something you haven't been through it's the woman's body so it should be the woman's choice if you want an issue to address how about rape on college campuses being one in four is that what we paid tuition to be robbed of respect and your own dignity and let crying and sore? it's a shame that it's a data to the society we live in .. one where rape is somehow the fault of the victim because I AM a woman I AM criticized for sport of slaughtered in songs beaten in black and blue .. yet i sing along as i become numb to the pain.. but I AM raising my voice because my sisters deserved to be appreciated not hated and discriminated for centuries woman have been cast aside in spite but because I AM a woman this is my fight I AM raising my voice because i just can't get the image out of my head of a young girl looking for herself in a man's words.. and it breaks my heart to think she may leave this earth never knowing her strength never knowing her own worth well if no one will tell you I AM here to say what they want that because YOU ARE A WOMAN you have a strength on your own so no longer should you crave perfection or subject yourself to society's opinion no longer will voice be silenced so that others may speak because WOMAN is not a synonym for a weak so try to deny me my rights and i will laugh as i excel because I AM A WOMAN i know i will win.....
