This poem gave me chills..
It’s so beautiful, and best of busts the trope that women are there to be enjoyed for superficial reasons. And I love the fact that this poem recognises equality.
This bit especially:
“Yes, to you women in a world of pain
To you, bright star in this ever-spending universe
To you, fighter of a thousand-and-one fights
To you, friend of my heart.”
