I'm a woman who can dress decently,

I'm a woman who can walk naked.

I'm a woman who can work in big offices,

I'm a woman who can hawk in the streets.

I'm a woman who can heal what's broken,

I'm a woman can break big hearts.

I'm a woman who can love unconditionally,

I'm a woman who can do without love.

I'm a woman who can smile at strangers,

I'm a woman who can lock them out in the rain.

I'm a woman who can be quiet and calm,

I'm a woman who can be loud and dangerous.

I'm a woman who can work through difficulties,

I'm a woman who can break and tear apart.

I'm a woman who can be traditional and naive,

I'm a woman who can be classy and sassy.

THAT'S THE WOMAN I CAN BE.
