Veil


Now, I'm not talking about "opression"

nor about regression,

of the Middle Eastern civilisations.

 

I just want to adress,

how I wish to dress:

But I don't mean physically

(thanks for making assumptions),

I mean my Right to privacy.

I get to hide,

If I want.

I get to be different, ashamed,

If I want.

 

So don't you ever think to stop me.

Hey, I'm seventeen, and many of those years have been spent devouring Italian mint chocolate chip ice-cream. I love Italian mint chocolate-chip ice-cream. You should really know that: that I LOVE ITALIAN MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE-CREAM (okay, I think you get the picture now, huh?).
