Yet
You tell me I’m only a woman, yet I feel there’s more I can do
You tell me my dreams aren’t worth dreaming, yet stand as I fill up the room
You tell me I’m not worth the patience, yet watch as I conquer my fears
You tell me to keep my mouth shut, yet expect my listening ear
You show me I’m less than my peers, but watch me soar in my career
You try to break me, yet you only build me up
You push me down, yet I get up stronger
Hey Eloise! I hope you know you actually inspired me to write kind of like a feminist poem, I guess? It’s called “Only A Woman” and I’ll be sharing it soon! But seriously, this was a really strongly worded piece and I very much enjoyed reading it. Great writing! Keep it up. I love the topic you chose and how you made it work. 🩵
Thank you so much! You have no idea how much this means to me. I CANT wait to check out “Only A Woman” ☺️
