We were told......

That we weren't enough. No matter what we did or how far we went, we were only useful for one thing. We were used, we're being used, we're still going to be used.

We're trophies they use to rise to fame.

We can't think. We can't speak. We hear their voices in what we say. They influence our thinking, our every movement. It's not good enough if it's different from their standards.

We think we are not it, because they think we are not it.

We need to speak. They'll try to shut us up, but we'll speak.

We'll speak, not for us, but for our children. They deserve better than this.

They deserve better than being born into a situation they can't change, and being forced to stay there because......

Because.......

They said so.
