Nothing But a Body

We are

 

 

Just a piece of 

 

Trash 

 

To  be discarded, whenever, however and wherever


THEY want. 


It's always “watch your surroundings”. 

Rather than raising your children better. 

What you wore and “he said you wanted it”

Not “we are gonna catch who did this”


Degrading us into making us think we are nothing

Not enough. 


WE fought for rights just to have them stolen again 


Trying to stick together

Feeling like all we have left is each other.


In a world where men think they are “superior” 


We are seen as nothing but a body


Something you can play with 

 

And leave it when you get bored.
