Who will listen to me - Toyo Mori

"Mama. where are you?
Papa. are you around?"
 
They are mine.
But am I theirs?
I'm confused.
 
When I cried. I cried alone,
No father listening to my pain,
No mother wiping my tears.
No brother's hand comforting me.

This is me and my life - Akkina Downing

They said it’s time I settle down
If I can’t find a man of my own 
They will be pleased to help me with that
They’re going to find me my man

Mama
a silent warrior
a familiar and comforting
voice I often hear

Which is which? - Val Sengebau

Who am I?
Where am I?
I can't seem to find the answers.
I don't know where I belong.
I don't know where to go.

Losing the Old Ways - Theothora Fahorug

A branch was growing on a tree
very happily.
A strong wind came
and broke it off the tree.
