That women aren't shaking inside from knowing the nearing pit falls

The ones that lie ahead as she tries to stand up tall

However her experiences seemed minor 

Considering her knowledge that other women have not had it kinder

Black and blues

Broken ribs too

Constant trips to the emergency room

It was supposed to be a love story like no other

But ended up in tragedy when a daughter was ripped away from her mother

Stories like this make my stomach turn

They happen to often and there voices are rarely heard

The injustices and inequalities that women are forced to deal with on a day to day

Makes it seem like we're back to being children being silenced as we play

However this time we are playing something new

We get told that it's our fault because of what we do

Even when we come together and shout “Me too”

You want us to play by your rules

Being happy with being the clueless fools

Men will always say “it's not all of us...There's some good ones left still”

Is that what you said when you made that sexist comment
