A Tale Of Two Halves

We live in a world, of two halves that collide,

Where gender discrimination, is hard to hide.

For centuries, women have fought for their place,

In a world that devalues, their beauty and grace.

They're told to be quiet, and not to make waves,

To stay in their place, and behave.

Their voices are silenced, their dreams denied,

A message that's harmful, and hard to abide.

Men, on the other hand, are raised to succeed,

To be strong, and fulfill their every need.

They're taught to be leaders, and not to be weak,

A message that's harmful, and hard to critique.

But the world is changing, and we can see,

The rise of a movement, that's calling to be free.

Women are breaking barriers, and taking the lead,

A message of empowerment, that's hard to concede.

Men, too, are awakening, to a new way of life,

A world of equality, that's free from strife.

A message of inclusivity, that's hard to ignore,

A world of peace, that we can all adore.

So let's work together, to create a new tale,

One of unity, where our differences prevail.

For in a world of acceptance, and love,

We can create a future, that's blessed from above.
