Poem
Who will hear her cries When he dares her to cry out loud Who will dry her eyes As she wanders aimlessly through the crowd Feeling trapped with no where to turn At his mercy with horrific lessons to learn Sufferring in silence not a whisper to be heard Don't make him angry or you'll regret saying a word Who will hear her As she swallows her cries and choke on her tears With cold packs on blackened eyes Who will help her Mind her business even if it is "not theirs" Who will give her a second thought as her body is flung down the stairs Will Anyone? Will you? Make it STOP! Call a COP! or just ..., let it DROP!!!! Not your business anyway That a man beats a woman today Had it coming' some will say But- Who will say NOT or STOP or PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! CALL THE COPS!!! Why bother? When they get there.., they too are men Unsympathetic with the pain that she's in "If we have to come back" is usually the threat Seems like she's not beat up enough yet To satisfy their definition of "assault" That's his woman and her lessons taught! Who will hear her Silent screams as she starts to fight back Who will hold her as her fragile bones start to crack Who will defend her when she finally makes a stand That leaves the lifeless body of a murdered man Who will Judge her? Of course not a jury of her peers Not one has felt what she's felt as her story they hear Who will have mercy for she's never found it before When she ran seeking refuge she found closed and locked doors In this land of the so called free FREE WHAT??? Free to live in agony In pursuit of life and liberty? "NEWS FLASH" In a male dominated society there is no female liberty If he can freely beat me and expect me to be happy With my scars and my blood Leaking into my bowels and no one -NO ONE can hear my pleas or rescue me and then..., They judge me for rescuing myself.
