It wasn't really tough



The Kardashians knew it all,
That, strength is all they need,
Women in Asia and the world,
Secure hearts, warm enough not mild.

Our leader, the prefect, with an astonishing beauty,
Her cheeks so warm with an encouraging skin,
The wisdom in her words secures many,
Ha ha! She loves but she hides the Jammy.

“She is wise and strong,
Fills my life with strength and wisdom,
But she is alone,
And she was always there since the day I was born.

Men think it is tough,
They don’t know the power we possess,
The strength of a woman,
Worthy and stronger than that of a man.

It wasn’t really tough,
She understands me and I understand her,
The love, the support and the care,
The connection and the true blood we share.”

Wait! Give it a thought,
Of the struggle, the breakthrough and the journey,
But she acquired victory,
A single mother changed her story.

Ooh! Ooh! Single mothers,
Your pride leads the throne,
You make everything possible,
She says, you are always available.

About this poem

I wrote this poem and dedicated it to the single mothers all around the world who are willing to do whatever it takes to make sure that they secure the lives of their children. I believe that these are the most powerful people the world has ever got as they stand firm to make sure that the toughest things don't seem that tough. No matter the challenges, no matter the pain and no matter how hard it becomes but still they stand firm and proclaim that "It wasn't really tough".
