We mourn when you are born.
We worry when you grow up.
We gossip when you are single.
We shun you when you are widowed.
We condemn you when you are divorced.
We judge you when you find love.
We discourage you when you aspire.
We disbelieve you when you inspire.
We hate you when you are the boss.
We doubt you when you excel.
We suppress you when you speak your mind.
We blame you when you are childless.
We criticise you when your child is wrong.
We envy you when you succeed.
We discriminate with you to see you fall.
We violate your rights and preach about equality.
We abuse you and support empowerment.
We rape you and talk of respect.
We exploit you and stand for equal opportunities.
We take you for granted and say we love you.
We worship your idol and lust for you.
We defame you and patronise you.
We expect the world from you but leave you behind when you are in need.
Oh woman wake up, rise and resurrect and stand up for yourself.
You alone are your own cheerleader.
Love yourself and cherish yourself and lift your spirits and your will.
You are the creator of life, be strong as you alone can change the world.
