Mother told me
Life is beautiful
but she never told me
of the confusion that exists
amongst its colors
Mother said to me,
“You are beautiful inside and out”
But she never showed me
How to hide that beauty
From predators
Mother warned me
Not to spread my legs
Before the price is paid
And I am called a bride
But she never added
That they could be forced to part
Mama told me
That hymens are broken
On wedding nights
On Special beds
But she forgot to add
That it could be broken by any rod
Mother warned me
Not to hate my enemies
But tonight
She is thirsty for blood
They tore my clothes
And shredded my pants
They covered my eyes
And sealed my lips
They put a hand on my throat
Broke into me with haste
Spilled my redness on mama’s bed
Split my thigh in two
And damaged my mind
Mother told to me
Life is beautiful
But she forgot to tell me
Of the ones who erase its colors
A sensitive topic, weirdly happen more time than imagined, sadly mute lips are often kept on it, eternally bruised hearts does it birth.
