#violenceagainstwomen
Give me a reason to love the way you fist connects with my jaw and your boot to my shins. Give me a reason to enjoy the taste of blood pooling in my mouth. Give me a reason to smile at the bruises on my sides and my thighs. Because I can't seen to find a **** good thing about the hate you spew out of your lips and express in your fist, but tell me that you love me and all the "baby I'm sorry's. Theres a cycle of pain that never ends, a line between love and hate but you don't know the difference. Now you want me to find pleasure in the bullet i've bitten but there is no more me. No more me to say another **** "baby I'm sorry".

Better Be **** Good
Does anyone truly know, The meaning behind the thread? It represents fourteen women, Who as of December 6 lay dead. We should all take time to remember, All the lives that were lost. To appreciate the lives they lived, Because their lives were cost. Violence against women is wrong, As everyone should see. We are all equal in all ways, Which is how things need to be.

The White Ribbon
काश उस दिन उसका भी कोई भाई होता, आज वो सितारा हमारे बीच ज़िंदा होता। काश कोई उसे जाकर बचा लेता, कम से कम उसका तो ख़ून न बहता। नरभक्षी भेड़ियों ने ली थी उसकी जान, छोड़ा था उसे वहीं तड़पता, लहूलुहान। चिल्लाती रही वो उसी जगह पर, न जाने कितने ही जुल्म हुए थे उस पर। नारी को निर्वस्त्र करने का परिणाम – इस भूमि ने महाभारत देखा था। धिक्कार है ऐसे समाज पर – उसी भूमि ने आज यह अपराध देखा था। जल रही हैं मोमबत्तियां शोक व्यक्त करने, आंदोलन कर रहे हैं लोग और दे रहे हैं धरने। क्या इस बार होगा उन दरिंदों पर कठिन शासन, या फिर एक बार उभरेगा एक नया दुःशासन?

empty fields filled with noise, echoes of the past misted voices, desolate landscapes hide still life, left behind like unwanted dolls each one hurt then mortally harmed, why are only loved ones alarmed, fathers not given a chance,                                                to protect                                                or sacrifice a life, mothers not given a chance,                                                  to stand up                                                  with all of the love, and their own life, sisters and brothers and all the others,                                                  to reject en masse,                                                   against diminished worth, each victim, born by birth, like you, each and everyone, now, in the arms of the Son, if there was a drop of mercy for every fallen tear, even with all of that, there is anger and there is fear, and questions that scream from the heart where, lifelong pain is the thief, that steals parts of those who remain, in pain and disbelief, that it happened to someone they knew, that it happened ever at all, that it will happen again. Where goodbye, was... And again. Happen. That love could not save them all from these acts that took them away. Undeserved death. By men who aren't men, Or by a coward dressed as a man. Once the news floods in and the spinning begins, and never ends never ends never ends never ends never ends never ends heaps of hearts lie cut on broken dreams, sleep is a dream where a scream is an alarm that went off too loud, too late, too often. That won't turn off. While Peace and Hope are near, and always seem, out of reach, cause stains and burns like bleach, come with cost where there is loss and the vibrant memories, already begin to fade.
