Nobody has the right to put their hands on you unless you give them the right to
Your body, your property
It’s that easy actually
However you define yourself to be, man or woman
anyone
I repeat,
Nobody has the right to put their hands on you unless you give them the right to
Nobody has the right to feel entitled to to your body, but you
Nobody has the right to define you
whoever you may be
Here’s to you
I know, there are so many of you, like you
Who felt violated in their own body
Who felt the sting of words
The sharp double edged sword of them
You, who didn’t let the thiefs in but that’s why we call them that
the criminals who leave you traumatized
They might not have killed but they wounded to the core
A reminder:
It is not your fault.
It‘s not your fault whatever you wear
It’s not your fault however you walk
It’s not your fault
It’s theirs.
Don’t stay silent. Fight.
