Don't stay out to long
Be back when the street lights come on
Your skirts to short
Maybe she's looking for it
You can't go to school in shorts
You'll distract the poor boys
We'll have to send you home,
It's not like your education really matters
Your just a girl
Don't wear makeup, it makes you look thirsty
Don't go there , he'll definitely drug you
Your mother's worried , your sister was raped
"So young , so full of life" they cry
"She was looking for it" they whispered
Monday's news was was another dead girl
Sources say she was abused
"Poor soul" they shout
"I saw that man follow her" they think
"Should I have done something?" The wonder
"Not my daughter" they dismiss
Gender based violence is a big problem in South Africa right now. I urge you to educate yourself on what is going on around you. Stay safe <3
