A WOMAN

A woman has two ears and two eyes,
Two hands, two legs, a nose and the truth lies
She has the same  hair, liver and tears,
Then why do you smile man & she shivers?

What does she have more than you man?
Only the ability to give birth to a son?
You are the one who tortures her
But she gave you birth, remember?
