Woman

Woman
I don’t think that I should teach you
Actually, I don’t prefer
To be neither coach nor tutor
The thought alone won’t make me stir
As a female I’m entitled
To feel as feminine as I can
And don’t judge me for expecting
The validation of a man
Not that I am unaware of
My own value or my pride
I just want to be respected
Though weaker vessel, or despite
May my weakness make me precious
May it force a gentle touch
Can chivalry still be requested?
Or would that be a tad too much?
I still prefer to be a woman
With lady looks and temperament
With girly traits whether odd or silly
I consider them a compliment
What makes me different is a virtue
It makes me special, yes indeed
I was created as a woman
To God the glory for this breed.

Privilege

Privilege
When the privilege first was given
When it was still crisp and new
When it had all others craving
For which is granted a small few
Then you reveled in its status
’Cause it gave you eminence
Yes, you teased with your position
And you reeked of confidence
You would make sure that they noticed
You would make sure that they knew
And you even made it public
You were from a certain crew
All of this was soon accepted
Everybody understood
You were better than all others
You alone could set the mood
So the others came together
And someone brought this to the fore
And they all took a decision
From now on they would ignore
You, your pride, and all your antics
For it didn’t make no sense
They would not allow much longer
For you to shine at their expense
For your shining was too costly
And it really took its toll
It caused anger and confusion
You respected no one’s role
So while you still enjoy your privilege
It is now just seen as work
For you gave the wrong impression
By behaving like a jerk.

The Tide

There it stood in all its glory
Huge and tall and all of that
Fearless, mighty, with a calling
Poised while on a horse he sat
And it did not go unnoticed
He was famous, well revered
Who could know the day was coming
When his stature would be smeared
And it happened, Lord have mercy!
Just like waves come with the tide
Who controls when they come rolling?
Or even when they will subside?
So down it came, and it was sudden
All in pieces, big and small
Now much hated and detested
Well, the irony of it all.

Shameless

Shameless
She is humble, always courteous
Always smiling, always sweet
Such a lady, what a woman
Come what may, she stays discreet
Many a man will tell his lady
’That is how a wife should be
Unassuming, not demanding
Just obey, don’t disagree’
She is humble, and she’s quiet
She will never say too much
But speak to her and you will notice
With a lot she’s out of touch
Her demeanor is intriguing
But then again, it’s also weird
For she has no recognition 
Of the things that should be feared
In her world, all is well and rosy
She knows not how to relate
To another woman’s anguish
For she knows not how to hate
And though hate is seldom virtuous
It will keep what’s bad at bay
So this makes her very tender
And many will just have their way
But she’s humble, and it's lovely
Keep her silent and oppressed
And make sure she gets the warning
To not appear disturbed or stressed
Keep her smiling, it serves a purpose
Our ego is at stake
Doesn’t matter what they’re saying
We prefer her to be fake
She is humble, she’s a minion
She makes life easy to say the least
She’s a toy, a gift, a blessing
To every vile and shameless beast.

Silence

Silence
Silence can give comfort
It’s a perfect hiding place
Where sometimes we choose to retreat
For hours or for days
But even though we choose to be
Without disturbing noise
This should not mean that we prefer
To be without a voice
A voice to make a statement
A voice to take a stand
A voice that parts not with the truth
When lies are in high demand
Outspokenness is a virtue
When integrity has its back
Why speak out, but when in a jam
We cower and backtrack?
Be silent then, and do not speak
For spoken words will travel
Into the ears, into the minds
They hamper or unravel
Speak up when it will save a soul
When it’s right and justified
No room for cowardice and fear
Their access is denied
Choose for a voice, don’t quiet down
Be bold with grace and poise
And have your silence when preferred
But don’t be without a voice.

Mind Trick

Mind trick
As I enter I am conscious
Of the dangers and effects
Even though it is alluring
I’ll regret in retrospect
But my mind just keeps persisting
This time too it’ll have its way
Even though I’m well acquainted
With the things it will display
And it’s just like at the movies
I am ready and all set
Soon my mind will start projecting
All the things I must forget
And I sit there while reliving
Awful things that made me sad
All the while infatuated
By the impact they once had
Though petrified I keep on viewing
Now and then I make a sound
I now see to my confusion
That these visuals still haunt
But the courage still eludes me
To get up and leave this space
And the horrors I’m enduring
Can be seen upon my face
As I slowly am regaining
The awareness that I lost
I agree my mind has tricked me
To forget what it would cost
So again I start the struggle
To escape the void I’m in
With a temporary promise
Not to enter here again.

Sisters

Sisters
If you’re a woman, then you’re my sister
Then I should want the best for you
I should honor and support you
You should do that for me too
And because we both are women
This brings us in a sisterhood
We would revel in its blessings
If only this privilege was understood
Women in all lands and places
Whatever their culture, tribe, or race
Whatever their standing or their talents
Whatever their body type or face
If we are women, we are sisters
And we are of a special breed
Leave us out for just a moment
And all comes tumbling down, indeed
And the duty that we’re given
Is one to cherish, and with pride
We were all made to be daughters
Even mothers, and many a bride
We can sense each others’ emotions
When one is in pain we understand
It takes a woman to know a woman
So therefore we should lend a hand
Every woman is your sister
Give each honor, don’t hold back
Be a rock, be an oasis
Keep jealousy and strife in check
Give support, be an example
Respect, correct, don’t undermine
Tell them of their strengths and virtues
Love them, give them space to shine
Just a glimmer can do wonders
In a world so dark and cold
But the brilliance of all sisters
See how magic will unfold!

Human Nature

Human nature
I’m a human, you’re a human
Can’t we all just be humane?
Why is it that we act poorly?
Or even blatantly insane?
We are getting worse than ever
Animalistic at its best
Time is mad at human nature
So she puts us to the test
All the lessons, all the teachings
The experience, the proof
Was in fain, it served no purpose
Wickedness goes through the roof
I’m a human, you’re a human
Whether different our race
Whether different our color
Whether different our face
What has happened to our glory?
What has happened to our crown?
Hear the sighs of our Creator
On his forehead a deep frown
At the start of our creation
We were honored, we were blessed
We were made to be the rulers
We were put higher than the rest
And below us were the creatures
This now sounds funny in retrospect
Please explain human behavior
When only we have intellect
Blessings have become a hazard
Most of them have been misused
And for that we thankless humans
Will for sure not be excused
Human nature is corrupted
And with time it worsens more
Keep holding on all you goodhearted
One day the Maker will restore.

The Green-Eyed Monster

The green-eyed monster
The green-eyed monster has awakened
From a sleep that made him rest
As he has regained his vigour
He will put you to the test
You will have to act real courteous
While your heart with envy sears
And you must control your anger
Maybe even hide your tears
Your endurance will be torture
For it lacks good sentiment
There’s no will or motivation
To utter any compliment
Now your mood is so confusing
And it shows upon your face
Which appears real taut and rigid
And you feel so out of place
’Cause the monster has awakened
And he wants to be amused
He wants you to spew out venom
And he will not be excused
As you struggle not to please him
You blend friendliness with spite
And it all becomes real awkward
’Cause you want to do what’s right
So you smile and raise your eyebrows
In case your eyes stare blank and cold
’Cause you want no one to blame you
For a grudge that you might hold
This is how you fight the monster
Or at least that’s how you try
And it looks as if you’re winning
But you know it’s just a lie.

The Blame

The blame
Was God wrong when he created
You like you and me like me?
Did he have the right, I wonder
For many seem to disagree
Some were born of certain gender
But one day they came to find
That the body they were given
Was not useful to their kind
Others did not feel too happy
About their features or their shape
How they wished for an alteration
Just as long as they could escape
All the sadness and frustration
The embarrassment and shame
None of this is what they wanted
And on God they put the blame
Why did he not take precaution?
Why did he not know and see
That a person flawed and broken
Can not be completely free?
So they start making some changes
Mind you, they will not be judged
Even if they become mutants
Even if they end up botched
In their quest for sheer perfection
Self-acceptance, inner peace
They are fooled by human standards
And this offers no release
And whatever change they’re making
Because the urge to fix was strong
One thing will remain for certain
God our Maker was never wrong.
