This isn't a pretty taleA Poem by Rose
To turn the blind eye when it comes to women's rage and pain,
or to choose the darker path of revenge Watch the noose wrap around the perpetrators neck To rape and pervert a woman's body, a human soul without consequences Is a universal wound against the feminine herself To expect healing, moving on and forgetting the pain is a fairytale To move on without rage and pain ignores the bloody wound Hearing survivors stories yet ruling in the favor of the perpetrator Is a slap in the face of all women Don't speak up, don't draw attention Is the story taught to us Whilst our own story is burnt in our minds We do not move on from pain and ugly memories Without creating more ugliness, earthly rage with our tongues sticking out in defiance
