don’t kill me
before i am born.
don’t kill me
after i am born.
don’t
discriminate,
mutilate my body,
burden me with work,
molest me,
blame that i am beautiful,
abuse me.
i want
to breathe,
laugh,
read and write,
play and scream,
sing and dance,
dream.
i want
to touch the sun,
twinkle the stars,
race the wind,
i want to fly.
