O Survivor!

Updated: Apr 12, 2021

By M. Fatima

PROMPT — Who am I today?

O Survivor! I hear you! Tell me your story, loud and clear,

I hear you! I hear your screams, I hear them loud I hear your pleads, I hear them loud O Survivor! Yell louder!

For the world needs to hear them too


O Survivor! I see you!

Show me your wounds, show me your scars

I see you!

I see your agony, I see it clear

I see your tears, I see them clear


O Survivor! Come nearer!

For the world needs to see them too

O Survivor! I feel you!

Your blood and sweat, I feel it

Your misery and pain, I feel it

O Survivor! Come forth!

For the world needs to feel it too


O Survivor! Let me be with you!

Your every secret, I’ll keep it

Your every tear, I’ll wipe it

O Survivor! Come hither

I’ll die with you


O Survivor! I’m with you!

Your desire, I know it

Your vengeance, I feel it

O Survivor! Stand tall!

From now on, I’ll stand with you
