We fought wars, standing beside husbands and kings

Our Suitor will be no shallow man, with just money to buy rings.

Life has enough pains for us, but why? I ask you

Amelia Earhart was no man, yet across the atlantic she flew.

We have given birth to mankind

And can destroy it in a blink.

Don't underestimate us darling,

We are stronger than you think.

We fought with dark lords and GODS, when it came to that!

We stood up and brushed ourselves, when consequences laid us flat.

We solved mysteries as common people and, fight we did.

We built Trust, Trust which takes ages to build.

Yet there we stand, ignored and unloved.

Margaret Thatcher was no man, yet proudly, she governed.

It was a WOMAN who picked you up,

When times made you sink.

Don't underestimate us darling,

We are stronger than you think.
This poem was written by a woman against the discrimation against women. We don't want to be treated higher than men, we just want to be treated equally. Thanks for reading!
