I am a Woman
By Kimberly Conrady
In the eyes of the world,
I am a daughter, wife, and mother.
A woman.
As a daughter,
Wearing little dresses and bows in my hair are what describe me.
As a wife,
Washing dishes and cleaning the house are all I can do.
As a mother,
Baring children and helping them grow is what I'm good at.
As a woman,
I am known for staying at home crying about my problems.
I am a woman.
I am a doctor.
My gloves covered with blood that winks in the light of the ones I save.
I am a police officer.
My life at risk for the sake of saving yours.
I am a construction worker.
Scaling the tall building, looking down at the people as small as ants.
I am a woman.
A woman who cares for her family.
A woman who works hard at her job.
I am a woman.
Loving, caring, and strong.
