I am like a burning flame that cannot be contained,
And in this little constrain, I crawl tirelessly,
Navigating towards an opening to proclaim
My nature, honesty and beauty, but ignored and left behind an endless dark hole
To naught as black coal.I am like the harmless dove who wants to play
But yet you made me a prey.
I screamed as your claws went through me,
My blood spilled as you ripped me off the rail.
You promised me freedom but made me walk in chains,
The pains you caused me were like extra to your gains.I am like a buzzing bee trapped in a thick black wall
Bottled up forest flowing with acidic rivers created by the society.
And even if I scream,
There is no way to flee.The society which is the product of my emergence obviously barricades me,
And yet like a well, it constantly draws life out of me.
Typical example of unwanted romance.Yes I copulate and populate to emulate you,
But you dominate and hate me.
What the hell is wrong with you?We were created to be one,
No matter how you divide or multiply, one is supposed to be one.
Equal is how God made it
But unequal is how you made it.Silently, I ponder as my mind begin to wander,
No more sitting in this helpless home of 'not being equal' to suffer.
With the horn of the bull I will walk yonder,
It's not going to be easy because I'm a gold going through the fire.Now I feel like I'm the female reincarnated Moses
Leading every girl child out of the Egyptian bondage.
For my voice is my root and God is my coverage.The male and female child are equal and that is sanity.
Anything aside that is insanity so please rearrange your philosophy.
