What is the Empowerment of a Woman?
By: Jennifer Arroyo
Beaten down, broken down,
Shut down, stepped down,
Thrown to the ground down;
How many downs does society
Need to value the power of a woman?
Not much, a single woman can make the change,
It is time to accept who we are and arrange
A conference, a party, a rally, a talk at the bar,
On a walk home tonight but it’s no joke what I speak of.
The power of a woman is infinite
As the galaxy in space and even brighter
Than the stars itself in the darkest corner.
The empowerment of a woman has come to
Change society and reform its old ways.
No longer will we accept society for
What they want us to be but
Accept society for what will be
Of us from now on. No longer
Have the chains and locks that never
Lets us free to roam the streets forever.
Never judge a woman’s pretty face,
There is always something more to face.
In the end of the day she is a woman,
A woman with so much to offer than just a pretty face,
A woman of power and moral values to embrace,
A woman greater than you can ever imagine.
She is an empowered woman.
