I AM A WOMAN!

If I were not there,

To love him and hold him dear,

To be with him, to make a pair;

Lonely he'd be in his lair.

With no one, his pains to share,

And his home, no one to care;

His meals, no one to prepare,

And his seed alone won't make an heir.

And at nights, when he has nightmares,

For his days weren't like in a fair;

There'd be no one to rub his hair,

To hold him and calm his fears.

Not anyone to wipe his tears,

And he'd scream aloud to the air;

That life alone is not so fair.

And he'd pray and wish that I was there.

I am a lover, a partner, a confidant.

I am a cook, cleaner, a pacifier.

I am a friend, a wife, a mother.

I am a woman!
