And I wish I could say this
doesn't cause me fear
that I'm not weary of this body
of what it's been through
of what "they" might do
I am WOMAN
And I love being one
but why does this mean I have to receive less
why can you freely voice your opinion
while mine I always have to suppress
I am WOMAN
And I have my own unique
style and preferences
I want to be able to go out wearing what I love
without the fear of "consequences"
I am WOMAN
why do you shame me for that
being a WOMAN doesn't make less of a person
nor does it make me your "prey"
I have the right to feel safe
when I walk around by myself
I am WOMAN
yes, I am
but before that I'm also HUMAN
just like you
and all women deserve to be treated with
the same respect men do too
because regardless of Gender or Race
each and every one of us
Has the right... to feel safe
