"A woman is a force of nature, her tears a rebellion against the passive blue sky.
If you can bring your love and tame the storm, you'll earn the right to the gates of the sun."
~Essence

International Women’s Day is a reminder to acknowledge and be thankful for the women who have paved the way for us in big and small ways.

Women
Watching the numbers go down
Where are the women of yesterday
Their souls have all been drowned
We can only hope to pray
Their sweat won’t run dry
Carry on to the gates
Swords were raised high
The last kiss remains
Not the preachers daughter
They sometimes emptied the mag
To the young they gave water
And some were put in a bag
They slept knowing no end
The future was unknown
They washed each other’s hands
And did not ride alone
They will never die
Let the spirits run high
And hear our final cry
Oh all the words that were crafted
And sent out as a wish
By other women, they were drafted
How they made each other rich
Breathe that filled the air
The little ones they carried
Staring into the eyes of a bear
They kept the candle burning
Not done without mercy
And done even more with pride
Their land had no boundary
Love would find its bride
Their knuckles were bruised
And with heads held high
The smoke they walked through
To reach the other side
They will never die
Let the spirits run high
And hear our final cry

Let my realizations after pain teach women, loving through your pain is empowering. Let it be my affirmation.
