''"Musings of a heart clinging to dying strength.
How strong would I be if my breath has been infiltrated with fears?
Fears of my rights to dream.
Will my existence make a mark of sacrifice if ever am to be reborn?
Or will I be in the shackles of pain and limitations cos that's the level I was told I can only dare aspire for.
I wish I received the support for breaking same record but no my gender was first base for criticism, then I should be happy I was allowed to trade in a part superior to my gender they said
obu aru nam bu nwanyi?
All I wanted was for my voice to be heard.
Heard for the respect I deserve.
Heard not for the mounds on my chest."''
