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