As a woman, all I want for International Women's D

As a woman, all I want for International Women's Day, 
is not roses, tributes, special spa packages, or bath salts and scented candles.
I want to be believed when I say, 
I am tired,
I am angry( no, not on my periods),
I have been cheated,
I have been lied to,
I want a break, 
I dont want to meet someone I dont like,
I want help,
I am sad,
I am scared,
I love you,
I want to make love to you,
I dont like it when you speak to me like that. 
I miss you, 
If you cannot do it, say right away,
Speak the truth,
I want to sleep,
I would like to be treated like an adult, 
I would like to be respected like I respect you...
