Phenomenal Woman

By Ysabelle Ashley P. Salonga

She is empowered.
She is dignified.

In every soul of woman you can find.
Despite the scars, she conquered,
surpassed the chaos but remained unshattered.

Society molds her with restrictions,
But never lived life limiting her options.
She is the epitome of change,
that no one can rage.

She lost on many wars,
battled from pain.
Giving out what she has,
hoping for better days.

And when she finally rose, she rose slowly,
gathering all the energies and avoiding shiny pennies.
And when she stood, she stood boldly,
confidently facing her lifelong enemies.

And when she learned how to thrive,
she desists the idea of prejudice.

That loathes her and becomes a prey when she only stands for justice.
And in the death of her reputation she felt truly alive.
