Y// Delicate, And Yet... Poem by Aufie Zophy

There is something so exquisite in them
Something so special and superb

And yet they have been deprived
Of the best of foods
Of the best of education
Of the best of rights

There is something so delicate in them
Something elegant and fine

And yet they've been oppressed
Been beaten
Been humiliated
Been abused

There something so beautiful in them
So dignified and great

And yet they have been raped
And vilified
And trafficked
And even sold

But there is hope, my smart friends
Things have been and are still changing,
From Florence to Malala.

One day we will all live in harmony
We are all so different
And yet so one
