What If

What if? What if all she wanted was freedom Freedom from the society’s haunting words Freedom from judgments From hatred that flowed from their souls Judgments that flowed from uneducated minds Hatred from unclean hearts Misunderstanding persons who never knew why She did all she did What if she wanted to run away From eyes that unstrap her Hands that try to choke her Mouths that curse her What if she was seeking security From the inferiority she felt What if she just wanted to prove a point To all the hungry men who wanted her as relish What if she wanted to furnish herself Make up for lost words What if, she also wanted to be human To feel normal To not be cursed and abused For being different What if that was the case?
