From her viewfinder

Welcome! To the world of mutilated double standards

Where He, and Her, differently define danger!

The second two entities meet eye to eye
Real horror begotten, or is she simply shy ?
He saw in her eyes a reflection of desire
A carnal crave his soul requires!
A witch! A seductress! He claimed she embodied
A physique! A mongrel, of a sin, he, carried!

She charmed his being, and his soul She shackled
As he surrendered to his demons, and humanity he relinquished.

Absolute was it her charm and seduction
It spoke to his demons, and took over his consciousness
She spoke a language only He could interpret
Her covet signs screamed for an affectionate banquet
A queen of flesh! Of mortal sin
That which no man can run from! Only give in

He shaped his fantasies to her image from his stolen glances
And claimed her his, for he owned her by the law of fragrance

In His eyes she saw the reflection of a demon!
A hungry starving beast with eyes of accusation
A moment of eternal fear struck her being at last
Frozen she became! Runaway she must!
She held in her heart a sadness which could drown the world
An eternal mourning for her everlasting lonely soul
She cried endlessly for no one could hear her call
Was the lonely white whale forgotten by the Lord?
Or was it a mishap of communication and incompatible souls!

She drove herself to a corner of salty tears
Print of a shameful act of cowardliness, she was told!
A pitiful, useless attempt to grasp attention
An unwanted display of contagious affection
She thought her world was crumbling around her
And earth beneath her feet was shattering
She felt the breeze like knives stabbing her
And the solace wind electrifying hammering!

It felt so tight that this vessel of a body could not contain
The contractions of organs inside asking for help in vain
As her limbs lost air and started to fall apart and the recurrent alarming pain stabbing inside her heart
As breath deem useless and oxygen abandons this ship
As it fell down from beneath and to doom away from life it slips
This combusting everlasting bomb dwelling inside
Aches for empty words to fill in the hollow blanks
By which this dirty would abide!
As it slowly starts to abort this forsaken ground
And to oblivion it sinks. Forever bound

It's YOUR destiny, she was told!
To be inferior to HE, To whom you're sold
As they lay witnesses to the daily brutal rape
Of a soul, the world knew no prior shape!!

She was the center of an honor trial
Held accountable for he, whom she beguiled
Given the choice to resign and walk the aisle
Hand in hand into her matrimonial exile

NO, she said, as she stood her ground, she rebelled
Never need I shrivel in one’s shadow
Claiming rewards through the excavation of my honor

Is this what you want?
Is this what you seek ?
To turn your daughters into the devil’s feast?
God made not humans to rule and to heed
You are not a vessel meant merely to breed

Don't cede, stand so proud, you’re meant to lead!
