Lady

I am tall, I am pretty, I smell sweet and dress neatly.
Oh yes, I am a Lady.
I flutter my eyes, I pout my lips, and I cross my legs and swing my hips.
Oh yes, I am a lady.
I say "please", I say "thank you", I say "I'm honored", but am I supposed to?
Oh yes, because I am a Lady.
Yet when I open my mouth and voice my opinion,
You become shocked and appalled, then come to the decision
Oh yes, I am not a Lady.
So I end up becoming an outcast.
Knowing damn well that I will not last
A moment in this cruel and unforgiving society.
My once fellow ladies are no longer beside me.
You scared them off; they didn't want the same fate.
Keeping your females in check at a steady rate.
Having that type of power to force upon them as you please.
Being able to rock the foundations of humanity and bringing it to its knees.
After I've been through the trials and tribulations of your ways,
I slowly slump back to my submissive days.
Oh yes, I am a broken Lady.
