Myths on Her

Myths on Her

I don't need your semen,

It feels like a burden,

I don't owe you children,

To be called a woman.

I don't need to give birth,

There's many on earth,

Who're living like a dirt,

Are they not any worth?

I don't need to lactate,

Just 'cause I've breast,

Am I less affectionate?

Ask my dolls the rest.

I don't need a baby,

To complete a family,

I add value to society,

Ain't that like a lady?

I don't need to be mother,

I'm born with that nature,

Yes, I do tend and nurture,

As wife, daughter, sister....
