Scarf of Freedom

They say I am covered and oppressed But I am just modestly dressed I can walk, I can talk I can agree to disagree To be who I want to be I am free This scarf I wear represents my dignity It is a mark of my modesty My past, my culture My present, my future So make no mistake of the way I dress There are much greater ways to impress I have a fire inside That no cloth can hide Follow my trail as I blaze on with this crown of purity Watch me soar with my wings of virtue and humility I am all that I can be Just take a peek of soul and revel at its beauty A kaleidoscope of dreams unraveling my identity I am free.
