There you are
looking pretty and smart
beautiful being the one
that goes with you
shy being the one
that accompanies you
fear being the one
that qualifies you
weak being the one
that denotes your gender
all these being tagged to you
for times as long as the centuries
now there be a different format for you
being that of self-sufficient in everything
not depending on man for your living
not calling him for every task
not frightened of being alone
not waiting for his approval
you be there fully different
a woman needing no empowerment
as being powerful altogether in style.
