Perfection they say we must be 

Keep your head high, and  walk straight

For this is a women 

Read, write and learn, we must not

Cook and clean, that is a our job

For this is a women 

No political say,  that is for man

Be lady-like, manners is a must 

For this is a women 

Mentally we are strong

while physically they call us weak

For this is a women 

One must not stand for man's utopia 

For we have a right as any other 

So we stand and proudly say,

 I am a Women


The author's comments:

This poem represents more of the first modern dy women. We had so many expectations of us and no say and how we lived our own life. So I brought that into this piece.
