Without Men

Without men, the world would breathe,  
A fierce fire ignited, no longer deceived.  
Chains of silence shattered, voices rise,  
In the echo of fury, women claim the prize.  

No more shadows cast by their disdain,  
We’re done with the whispers, the guilt, the pain.  
With every heartbeat, we reclaim our might,  
Fists clenched in defiance, ready to fight.  

Their empty promises, we’ve had enough,  
No more playing nice, no more being tough.  
We’ll carve our own path, with rage as our guide,  
In the storm of our anger, we’ll no longer hide.  

So let the world tremble, let them all see,  
Without men, we’re fierce, we’re wild, we’re free.  
No longer their pawns, we rise and we roar,  
In the ashes of silence, we’ll settle the score.

I believe everyone is free to express their opinions even if I don`t agree with them or it makes me feel uncomfortable. I strongly believe in free speech. I RESPECT all humans until they give me a reason not to. as MLK once said "I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear." or Ghandi once said [though some people dispute if he actually said it] 'an eye for an eye makes the world blind'
