Black or white

Black or white
Why is the world so heartless?
She lives in a world of her own,
Traumatized, mentally disturbed,
It is not easy to reach her, in her shell
But once you’ve done that, a beautiful light
reveals itself…
She has found a soul to care for, a bird....
She gives all her love and attention
And she receives it in return, wholly,
A precious bond she hasn’t often experienced!
For society, she is strange:
She is categorized, put in a box,
Hospitalized, case number 1372…
And they took away the bird…
A woman objectified…
Not seen, not considered,
Judged, used…
But we only look after the bird…
Open your heart and see her beauty inside​​​​​​​​​​​​
