The struggle of expression and how to be seen, heard, & understood.
{ inspired by "Lady Godiva " by Anne Whitney }
lyrics
How heavy is womanhood?
It weighs more than robe layers.
And now that vulnerability is present,
do you see me now?
As your eyes rest on my landscape,
I wonder who will teach you wisdom?
Now that I have the world’s gaze,
can you hear me?
No?
How about now that their hunger is louder than this anger?
can you hear me now?
still No?
What can I do to be understood?
My eyes are up here,
And I’m screaming.
If you can’t hear me now,
You’re in for an unpleasant surprise.
And your girl’s patience is running out.
