The reality of day to day living in third world countries like mine could be sad. Domestic violence is still a reality that wears our bodies like gorgeous clothes our mothers bought for us during Christmas. Counseling has not really been my forte but finding a voice in a world where the under-privileged voices are swallowed have always given me a platform to fight rather peacefully with my pen.

Steemit of course would not be saved from my venom.

Recently a friend told me of her intention to divorce her husband for his malicious treatment of her was beyond what she could bear. Her face were swollen and a part of it red, a picture of the malicious beating she has been subjected to.

It is quite unfortunate that some men still see the female gender a property to acquire.

These treasures are worthy of our love and respect.

I wrote this poem for the gender folks;

the palms of my inside
are sweating blood
as weeds of betrayal
litter beautiful lawns in my heart.

i have drawn the world on the wind
to touch every soul
so i swim in murky waters
i tell the stars to shine my dream.

For I am a treasure seeking peace and love.

I am encouraged by your upvotes and follows. Selah.
