Spend a day walking in my shoes Drowning in my thoughts Pushing down the lump in my throat.
Spend a day with the sinking feeling in my stomach Watching your back Fending off strangers who think they have a right to your body.
Spend a day waking up with tears in your eyes Wanting to run away at the first sign of danger Laying in bed with tears streaming down your cheeks.
Spend a day choking back sobs because no one can hear you crying Putting on a fake smile when someone asks if you’re okay Putting up with people telling you how lucky you are.
Spend a day in my shoes Then tell me how I’m so lucky.
