The cruel loop

No matter what I wear, you violate,
No matter what I say, you silence,
No matter what I achieve, you erase,
No matter how I live, you destroy.

If I survive, I live with shame and blame,
If I die, I am a fighter with all the blame,
If you unlock new levels of brutality, I am a fighter, a martyr, and an awakener of the society with a new name.

I live or die,
I will be forgotten,
When everyone goes back to sleep,
They snore discipline to women,
Women to women
Men to women
And wait,
For another bus,
For another seminar hall,
For another woman,
Another girl,
Another toddler,
Another martyr,
To create another conscience awakener.
