Jane Doe Poem by Aldo Kraas

To right the wrongs
To survive each day
To stay alive
And show the way
To the women of this city, this province, and the world
That you must stand up for your rights
And not be afraid to speak up and show your emotions
And recognize that you are God’s child
And to know that someone is watching you from above
Strengthening you every day
And guiding you each day where you go
Praise yourself for what you do each day
And look at the mirror and say I love you, Jane Doe
And know who you are
Have a relationship with yourself before you have with others
Don’t try to be better than others, just be your own true self
Just live your life one day at a time
Don’t try to do everything at once,
Live your life one day at a time
Think positive each day, and leave the negative thoughts behind
You are the one to make the changes in this world
