Sorry

When I look around 

I see you in short skirts 

And gave as an excuse

I see you in belly tops 

And fooled myself you were there to tease

Now I am part of those 

Those who make you uncomfortable in.your own skin 

Now you want to brighten it just for me you try to please

Most times I even forget you just an unconscious victim 

Victim that allowed herself to be victimized 

To be marginalized and deceived to think 

You are all just your body 

And all you can give is a tiny little foreskin 

A tiny little flesh

Now I know better

I apologise

Mama 

Sister 

Neighbor

Girlfriend

Partner

I apologise
