Writing To Me

yaskhan

When you are big and grown
‘Tis better to cry alone.

So I cry when I am all alone
Till the tears are done and worn.

Then I write poetry and feel better
It’s like me writing to me , a letter.

The words I write lessen my pain
My soul’s peace I attain.

Poetry fills the void in my heart
It’s like offloading an emotional cart.

That’s the way I handle my pain
With poetry, my quintessence sustain.

” Transava comigo à força “

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

” Transava comigo à força “. Essa frase é da dona Odete Ricardo no Documentário: Mas por que ela não denuncia/ Micaela Pedrosa. Esse é o relato de mais uma vítima da violência doméstica. Além dessa história tem várias outras que evidenciam a questão da violência nesse documentário. Na verdade, há outras histórias de mulheres que sobreviveram a violência, é que vale a pena assistir.

” As barreiras culturais são mais comprometedoras do que tudo aquilo que a lei brasileira deixa a desejar”.

Fato. essa realidade nos mostra o que? Que ainda estamos longe de obter a resposta para tudo aquilo que queremos. Mulheres como dona Odete passaram a vida toda sofrendo violência por parte do marido. Aqui, não falo só a respeito da violência psicológica, sexual e física. Era comum o marido dizer: ” você tem a obrigação de transar comigo!”, porque você é a minha mulher…” Eu tenho…

“I was mad, like blood boiling through my veins now, watching my community get slaughtered,” says Nguyen, a civil rights activist who was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize for her work in advocating for sexual assault survivors. “How many more people need to be killed in order for the news outlets, especially mainstream ones, to think that we’re worthy of a story?”
