There is no force on Earth stronger than a woman.
In a society of sexism and prejudice,
She will stand tall and proud.
You can take away her rights.
You can take away her voice.
You can take away her freedom.
But you will never take away her resilience.
She will persist.
She will brave the toughest storms
And dodge threats and insults like they are bullets.
In the face of oppression, she will fight and succeed
And she will declare triumphantly,
“I am here to stay.”
For there is no force on Earth stronger than a woman determined to rise.
There is no force on Earth stronger than a woman.
In a society of hatred and chaos,
She will stand tall and proud.
Through others may mock and laugh and ridicule,
She will be living proof of goodness and love.
Some may doubt her.
Some may misunderstand her.
Some may hurt her.
But all to no avail.
She will persist.
She is a warrior, fierce and ferocious.
A lover and fighter, she will fight for what she loves.
In the face of adversary, she will prevail despite all odds
And she will declare triumphantly,
“You cannot break me.”
For there is no force on Earth stronger than a woman determined to rise.
A poem dedicated to my strong and independent sisters of Sigma Psi Zeta. Never back down and never stop fighting, ladies.
