We have all felt 'Trapped' at least once in our lives,but maybe we are our biggest enemy and only oppressor.

Trapped.

I'm trapped.

Trapped by my mistakes.

Nowhere to run.

Nowhere to hide.

Just console the man inside,

Man up!

Take the suffocation,

just like a man.

The 'Man',

Society,

expects you to be.

Never mind that I am a woman.

I am trapped,

in the prison.

The prison of all the things that are not 

my fault.

I am a lady.

Born a lady.

Of course,

it's my fault.

Shoulda just been man 

I ain't 'bout dat life.

Nah.

I am a woman.

Not a wo'man'.

's that too hard to understand?

I am half of your world

start treating me as such.

I am beauty

start telling me 

the terms you use towards me 

should be 

anti-derogatory

There are not many things that I'm not.

but there is one...

Your labels.

Something I never was

And never will be.

Yes I am trapped.

but...

I am not trapped in your words,

I am trapped,

In my freedom.
