The conversations of 

what women are and what they deserve

have made me 

become someone 

in spite of you.

 

I love you

and I cherish you,

but when you tell me

that because of my biology

that I am

less, 

I have become someone

in spite of you. 

 

Thank you for those

enlightening conversations,

because without them,

I would have never turned and 

learned that I am a powerful being

that deserves and will demand

respect.

 

Your vindictive words

have turned me into someone

in spite of you. 

Thank you.
