Together Apart

It was a man’s ego.
It was a woman’s heart.
They were all fragile.

It was his heart.
It was her ego.
They were all stiff.

It was his no.
It was her yes.
They were all aloud.

It was his yes.
It was her no.
They were all hushed up.

Apparently, the word woman
Has man in it but
the latter is completely

Devoid of the former.

  1. the latter is not devoid of the former, hes a small part of it. the man, comes from woman. if there was no woman, how could there be a man? :)

    1. This would drift us into a long debate. We all know it, if there was no woman, there wouldn't be that small part either. But most men don't get it (sadly, even today). And I guess I don't need to quote examples.

    2. there was a time, we were scared of the sun, a time we were afraid of the weather and the storm, so we prayed. that time passed. this will too. :)

      it seemed you had someone in mind. did you?

    3. I have no idea about that time. But what I know and believe is praying won't help. Teaching will. Teaching both our sons and daughters about treating each other equally.

      And I guess I have clearly written who was on my mind.
