I want to be



I want to be a woman who,
Does not dream about success,
But work for it.
I want to be a woman who knows,
What she wants and isn't afraid to fail.
Because failure is a stepping stone to success.
I want to be that woman!

I want to be that powerful woman,
Who is so determined to rise,
I want to be the heroine of my life,
I want to wake up with determination,
And lie to bed with satisfaction,
I want to be!
A woman who support and celebrate
Each other for we cannot succeed,
When half of us are held back.

I want to be a fearless and a confident woman!
For there is no limit to what we women,
Can accomplish.
The question isn't who is going to let me,
It is, who is going to stop me!
