The Fate of Women

It is mine to wait, to wait,

To love you from afar

For women have a bitter fate

Our hearts too tender, are.

We give them far too freely

Then suffer when they rend

For emotion strong cannot merely

Offer liking to the men

Oh, no! We wax poetic

For the love we feel so true

And soon we are anemic

For want of love from you.
