Selfless.

Why do women chose to give so much?

“Why of course, there is joy in giving”
But there is also pain.

These pains that keep the world awakening,
Rising, falling, day by day.

Their vulnerability is their strength.
For they are human despite the fear,
Despite the haunted dreams.

They are not cowards.

Men rest when there aren’t battles to be won.

Yet she runs to the forefront, again and again,
Protecting.

There is a courage to be wonted,
A fearlessness you see radiating from within her soul.

Mother, wife, sister, daughter.
Titles.

Yet wonder has it,
She is woman.
