Women of the World
we see your life,
in a world of conflict,
pain and strife.
Women being wives,
we feel your pain,
trying to build towards
a life of gain.
Women being mothers,
we know your cry,
aiming, for your children,
for the best of life.
Women being strong,
we share your loss,
humiliation, degradation,
and the heart-felt cost.
Women being heard,
your voice is loud,
it can also be seen
through the dark, dark cloud.
Women of hope,
never give away
your pride, and the effort
towards a better day.
Women of the future,
work through this test,
to help you all
we’re doing our best.
The women here
have not forgotten you
and send strong support
for all that you do.
