Women 

They are born 

They do not become

They are the pillars of societies

Or tribes

They are

They exist

Women,

Creators of rainbows

Of Angels

Of Gods

Women,

Show them respect

As you respect your mama

Your daughter

Your sister

Women,

We are supposed to be all together

But the new societies

Makes us enemies

Cheap

Without care

With sympathy

Without empathy

Without self-respect 

If women they could remember their purpose

The world, it could be different

I wish i had a love

A love as it should be

No more take and take…

I wish I had a friend

As friends should be

Be close to hard times

Listen to our wishes

Support us

I wish I had met a person

Who could understand me

Only from my eyes 

Or my mood

But if I had all that

Maybe I would never write poems

Poetry is my path

Poetry is my strength

Eva Lianou is a Greek poet.
