If nothing else, just be proud to be ALIVE

I know my limits, I’m not bound

I’m not confined I can go around

I love my freedom, lucky I’m here

Thank God I wasn’t born with a fear

Hate that time when women were supressed

Beaten, scared, forced and oppressed

I don’t know how they survived in that male world

During that time, it was unfortunate to be a girl

Had no voice

Had no choice

Did what they were told to, things were forced upon

Family, rules, regulations, they had to hold on

Those who stood up for their rights were called lunatics

Treated like animals, their life was tragic

Dependant, first on their father then husband

They were nothing for them but burden

Lived in a confined cell

Life was living hell

I, rather, we are lucky enough

None of us could have tolerated this stuff

I love my freedom

So should you

I realize that seldom

But then we really should.
