International Women’s Day

today I've screamed my heart out

sorrounded by many sisters and amazing women

and left my workplace to fight

to participate in the revolution

to the woman who was looking at us

a smile that lights up her whole face:

thank you for coming to me

and telling me how grateful you are

we are supporting each other and making noise,

how much we reminded you of you in your youth

how impressed you were we are this young

thank you for your embrace, for bursting into tears

and making me burst into tears as well

you've given me so much

I promise you I'll never stop fighting

I'll use my voice till I no longer have it

I'll do it for you.
