Poem – By Ruvimbo P Jekwa

My name is girl. Grief, Injury, Rotten, Lacerated. They made me believe I’m worthless. So, I water this heart with my tears. Being a girl means you are hopeless. But today I tell my story. I am a girl, I was born and raised in pain. My mother died in this war. At the hands of her protector, her master.
