Elsa Tuneblom // SILENT SCREAMS

We live in a country that advertises equality
But is that really the case?

Cases upon cases upon cases.
Most hardly even bat an eyelash
But some are viewed by the whole world

Two sides of the story
But only one is accepted

Women.
Fighting.
For their voices to finally be heard.

They don’t get any of the blame
But we do?

To us, they are loud and clear.
But to them, their screams cannot be heard from a mile away.

They ask what she was wearing.
They ask if she followed him into the room.
They ask if she lead him into the room.
They ask if she said no.

How is it always something we did?
But not them.
