This second poem is so close to my heart and goes out to all the suffering women around the world, we can together make them reclaim their voices, curb domestic violence and set themselves free from the volence of inequality:
CARESS NOT SILENCE
Satirical love
Don’t romance this silence
Silence of horror
Only amplifies the error
The storm thunders darkness
Silence still can’t light the sadness
Break the silence-
A step to crush the violence
The mind knocks hard
For you to set liberty on roam
Only what you feed it cages you back
Why not set it right, take better control
Fear isn’t strong, but a puff of weakness
How much more will you caress its coldness
Don’t let him waste you as void or useless
No longer should you hide behind the skins of his voice
Claw at courage to strip fear’s nakedness
Scream out the hopelessness-
Break the silence
To crush the noise of violence
