Genital Mutilation

I wish to overcome memories of my past

Yes I am alive, yes I am a girl

But my past always haunt me

Can anyone guess what's going on in my mind?

Shadows of my past always walks with me

That day when I was crying

That day when I was mourning

In severe pain and in severe difficulties

They were celebrating with rejoice

No one came to take care of me

They were eating and they were drinking

And they were mixing my blood in wine

I was unconscious still I felt that pain

They came with knife and cut my genital tract

Enjoying and rejoicing and celebrating with happiness

Do you know at that time I was in tender age

Still I felt the real pain and shame on my life

All those truth took years to unfold up and never told

But the desire to expose and tell the truth about you all

Always haunted me day and night

I wish to overcome my memories of past

I wish to tell the world to change the perception of mind

That female genital mutilation is a violence

Against girls and is another crime against humanity

It's a dehumanizing and total humiliation

Still in this generation little girls are mutilated

Little girls with no means to protect their bodies

I wish to tell the truth of this pain

I wish to first change the mind of women

Who are the real culprit of this shameful act

I wish to reveal that if God wanted girls

Not to be born with their organs
