Do you know what it takes to be a woman?
Her body is a vessel for life and love
She is the being God chose to have one of His miracles
The ability to create, host, grow and nurture souls
She reaches the brink of death to bring forth life
She splits in half and mends herself only to do it all over again
With a child on her hip and another growing in her belly
She nurtures both, feeding both from her body.
She is an ever continuous source of love and affection
Through her pain and humiliation by her dominating male she is still the well of everlasting good
The purity of her heart transcends all hate
The lines that distort her skin are ones she takes pride in
For they are a testament to her endurance
She wears her dignity like a halo that nothing can touch
For it radiates from within her
She loves without malice
She protects like a tigress
But she attacks like a lioness
She could love unconditionally
Give life wholeheartedly
Forgive gracefully
And deep inside her she is made of the strongest substance God has ever created
Femininity.
You will never know what it takes to be a woman.
