A sad Woman

My stare into oblivion,
Counting as a delusion,
My daily fight,
A shattered petition, to be free,
My choice to stand and fight,
Nevertheless I am just a woman,
A woman who can not speak her mind.

As I climb the ladder of life,
I am reminded of who I am,
Not because I don't know, but to taunt my supposed weakness,
When men work and study,
I am told to cook and style,
What am I ???
Just a woman, who has no say.

One those painful nights,
At my gentle - quiet corner,
Under the silver white moon,
I ask myself,
Who am I???? What am I???
Treated as a chore worker,
I wonder if he gave birth to me,
Or maybe i am adopted as my brother is taken care of,
Maybe someday, I will stand and fight,
Maybe someday others will speak with me,
But for now all I can do, is stare into oblivion,
This sad life, is my daily routine.
