She's valuable



You say you like them thin or thick
Cos your motivation was always extrinsic
Hey don't call her materialistic
When you can't even buy her lipstick

Really let's be realistic
If your feelings were ever intrinsic
You'd know it also takes giving for the love to stick
For the future of a love without sacrifice is bleak

Call her a diva
Not a gold digger
Use your words on her to flatter
And not to falter

Yes let her feel like a lover
and not like a beggar
For her be a believer
and fault the rules of a soldier

Don't afford to leave her
Cos without her, you're a house without pillar
Stop being her caterpillar
She needs you to be her shield and buckler

When she's passing through trials
and though she's sick and has fever
even when she has malaria
feel free to be her arthemeter and amalar

Let her be your Panadol
When she's offended, let her not walk out the door
Plead to her even if without a cause
Hey bro, learn to beg even if you have to crawl

Correct her faults and save her from every fall
Learn to be her knight in shining armor
See her beauty even in her flaws
Make love to her like never before

She was made to be fragile
so you've gotta be agile
She was made to be tender
for her be a bouncer

Never tempt or test her with her weaknesses
help her deal with her excesses
Even in her fierce useless ferocity
in you let her find capacity
to absorb and treat her atrocities

You say she's too demanding
and her needs are so overwhelming
Remember you saw her and she was breathtaking
as your heart raced back and forth like there's an overtaking

Remember,
She twisted, she turned, she bent for you
All her mind and body she gave unto you
Please and please never you take her for a fool
nor you see her as a beautiful but disposable tool
SHE'S VALUABLE

About this poem

How well have we treated the female gender? oftentimes, people see them as a tool rather than the interesting and powerful creatures they. They are to be valued if we want to enjoy them and unleash their full potentials
