PARENTS DO YOUR WORK

It seemed
Like this is what they were waiting for
Everyone was doing nothing but criticizing her
"Who does that? "
They would ask each other as they laughed hard than women in the market

They called her names
For leaving her home and running away
She had committed a taboo, an abomination that was not tolerable in the society
The law of the land said that  all ladies were to be circumcised
And this she had to do when she would return back to the land

The parents ,poor and incompetent as they were did nothing but listen to their sayings
They wished within themselves that if only they had the means to protect their daughter they would have done it.

Excuse me parents,
This is the time to protect your children from other people
It really doesn't matter if you have the mulla to do so
Just do what you have to, to keep them away from those who do nothing but speak Ill of you

Live

It's time to wake up from your sleep and know that you have your whole life ahead of you. You don't need to sulk after failing in one of your projects. No need to hide in your shell after one little failure. Live your life to the fullest and let God be your guide. Live your life with God ahead of you. Video credits and source is Prince Ea
