Choices

Location

I am powerless
in a world of choices
I am kept aside
and voiceless
as a women
as a color
I am in the demographic as an "other"
I am forever labeled to be discarded
Like my mother and her mother
I will walk this earth seen as a
servent
Wrapped in my burka which I adore
I am proud and I feel as a women should
Aside from the status
Aside from the power
I own something no man ever will
My soul
