Listen

Are you listening when she speaks

Or are you blocking out her sounds

Because her breast has your attention

Are you listening to her cries

Or are you wiping her tears

Telling her she’s overreacting

And that what he did to her is not even that serious

Can you hear her screams

No wait, you can’t because his hands are covering her mouth while she screams

No, Please, Stop

Are you listening to her

When she explained that he’s touching her

He’s raping her, he’s beating her

Or are you telling her that it’s impossible

Because that’s her husband

Why aren’t you listening

Are her words less important than his

Or is his words more important than hers

Which one

Why aren’t you listening

To her cries, her screams, and her speech

about her struggles just being a women

Are you dismissing them because you can’t relate

Or is it that you just don’t care

If the answer to these questions is No

You need to wake up because of this world

Is no longer a man’s world

You better listen when she speaks

Because she will educate

You better listen to her cries

Because her cries will become your cries

Some way or another

Her screams will become your screams

Don’t drop the soap

You better listen

Because karma is a…..

No not a female dog

Or a female

It’s a real pain and it hurts

This is not a threat, it’s a warning

What goes around comes back around

You better listen to me

You better listen to her

Listen to us

Cause who don’t hear will feel

Music Magic

The craft of music  is so powerful

Music to your ears travels to your heart

Making your mind very flowerful

Turning your feelings in a work of art

The strong connection you get from a tune;

Can change the way you think at that moment

Or  imaginations turn into a dune

Just to get the music bestowment

The beauty of this amazing sweet sound

That comes in many different ways and time

Powerful enough to make you earthbound

For it comes in different rhythm or rhyme

Don’t neglect the magic of sweet music

Cause it can be all you got in your life
