STOP violence against women
By: Slavka Bozovic
Oh, how my soul hurts
when I see a woman as a wounded bird
must she be condemned to an eternal tear
if out of love she became attached to a selfish bum.
I'm sure she loved him very much
and gave him everything she had in life
served him, bore him children
And he is harassing her, like the last idiot.
I feel her tears and sadness unspoken,
as if a scalpel were cutting a part of my heart
as I watch her oppressed and tortured
my words fly to the heavenly messengers.
And I pray to the Creator and the apostles
from hell to deliver her, with their powers
to resurrect her tired body
and the wounded wings strengthened to fly freely.
I am an opponent of bruises from all forms of violence
I wonder, is there justice in this world?
To keep the abuser away from children and women
because he is not a friend to her or the child.
Violence leaves catastrophic consequences
destroys society and the survival of humanity.
Say STOP to violence against women
for without a woman there is neither love nor offspring.
