GirlhoodA Poem by nadia dmitriThey want you, but at what cost?Girlhood will kill you They call you everything Except your own name Girlhood will kill you You spend your days on your knees Begging or serving Girlhood will kill you You have played every role Mother, lover, dog Girlhood will kill you They want you, but at what cost? They just take and take Girlhood will kill you I feel myself being sold What have I become? Girlhood will kill you I undress my dignity For your hungry claws Girlhood will kill you Once they've had their way with you You have lost your home Girlhood will kill you You cannot escape your skin You exist for them © 2024 nadia dmitri |
