Held Together by Silence

A girl needs to feel free

By desiree gerberPublished 6 months ago • 1 min read

On the other side of thin walls is a girl that wants to be loved.

A girl that wants to be enough.

A girl that is waiting for the right one to come.

A girl that has to act tough.

A girl that doesn't have to worry about her looks.

A girl that wants to have perfect skin.

A girl that doesn't want to worry about her body shape.

A girl that wants to be free.

A girl that wants to live without worry.

Girls deserve to be free and live,

So girls are held together by silence.
