Bubble Burst

I've been told to bite 

my tongue and usually, I would do 

it for sport Because humanity and 

My society told me, convinced me, 

that doing so was right, but for the first time 

you seemed to rename me and 

did so publicly, and when the name 

was bitch. I lost all sight of my temper, my vision, and who I was 

for a moment. Dying in that

instant, coming back to you as what you have named me, 

died again and came back again. 

I told myself that I had 

to slide down, slide down this 

rope that you've handed me and 

see where it goes, but all 

I found was the great Dipper 

full of words that I 

wanted to say, but didn't have the voice to speak. I tossed 

them up to the Stars where 

the stars rejected them and 

shooting stars were born.

I tried to lift Men up, but 

just because the first woman 

came from Men's ribs does 

not mean we needed them 

to learn how to speak. 

Humanity let me down by 

letting men like you rename 

women like me bitch. So how 

can I lift men up, if I as a 

woman is too heavy from 

carrying all the burdens men's 

given me? I bit my tongue 

before but I declare not anymore.
