When I think of all the women I've known
I realize that
Aunt Bethany didn't need a man to travel the world
And help cure cancer
Nana didn't need Grandad to educate the next generation of engineers
And finish college herself
Mom didn't need my dad to get a degree
And write a book
Miss C didn't need the father of her children to raise them
And inspire my friends and I
Mrs. Scott didn't need her husband to find her path
And share it with others
So maybe I don't need a man.
