Let’s us make our mistakes and find our own way.
No protests when we make our housework easy,

Can we call out that woman – the one who hates,
Who won’t support her sister until it’s too late.
Who gives support to the man who does women harm,
Even though she knows he’s the one in the wrong.

But have coffee or chai in the evening with you. Continue reading Freedom
