“We are diamonds in the rough
Through the thrust and toil, we come out strong
We are the breath of the earth,
Our wombs tell of humanity’s birth
We are seeds splattered on putrid soils
Still, we sprout, through every storm
We are not here to survive,
We are here to live…
Inward and outward
In the incandescence of our existence
Yes, our voices may sometimes be broken
But our spirit remains indestructible.
We are women, unapologetically!”
