HeToo SheToo

I won't blame you just because you're a man

I won't believe you just because you're a woman

You could be a man abused by a man or woman

You could be a woman abused by a woman or man

I will hear you because you've a story to tell

Because you've found your voice,

You've silenced the demons in your head and outside

Who told you it was all your fault

Must've been something you said, the way you looked at them, smiled at them

Or must've been the way you dressed!

Because you found the courage,

Moved past the things that were holding you back,

And told that creep loud and clear

"Your Times Up!!"

Doesn't matter how long ago it was

Doesn't matter how powerful they are

The tables have turned

No more shaming or blaming the victim

It's time to name that creep!

That creep who made you uncomfortable just with a look or small talk

That pervert who touched you without your consent

That rapist who thought you would take it all to the grave

I will hear you just because

It takes a lot to speak up!
