![]() EnoughA Poem by The Things She Noted
He tells me he has sisters
He wouldn’t hurt me They say what if it was your mother? Don’t you have a daughter? Why does empathy need to string thin through connection of self Why can’t you want better for me In the simple name of humanity Why am I only safe in the shadows of your sisters The mortgaging of your mothers I bare a soft soul Why can’t that be enough? © 2023 The Things She Noted |
