A Daughter

She was born
She was sweet
her eyes glowing
tiny were her feet’

she luked around
for hands to caress
to lift her up and
adore the mistress

she cud see the crowd
she cud feel the warmth
she cud experience the gravity
of the people shouting loud

perhaps they wer’nt happy
there was sum mystrey
which her small being cud not follow
and she was creating history

she started weeping
as if cursing her fate
as if asking God
Y am i made??

There was no one to follow
no one to coddle
no one to understand
the catastrophy of the gal

This tells a gals fate
dat she cumes into the world wid luck n grace
wen the world around treats her AS SLAUGHTER
jussz Bcoz she is a DAUGHTER!!
