Matipda phiri articles


Four years have passed, yet the pain remains

A long night of terror, a monster's cruel games

I was flooded with pain, unable to fight

And though I cried out, my voice was lost in the night


My parents, my friends, thought it was a lie

But I know the truth, and the tears won't dry

Fear still fills my eyes, a constant reminder

Of the trauma I faced, the suffering I endured 


Will I ever escape this prison of shame?

Can I cleanse the scars and reclaim my name?

My future, once bright, now lies in decay

But I refuse to let it fade away


No, it's not over, my sister, it's not the end

The fire within me still burns, a passion that transcends

A vision takes shape, a mission to fulfill

I'll rise up, take action, and make my spirit soar still.


STOP RAPE. REPORT ALL RAPE CASES!!!

The Woman in Me- Poem and its Review

Deep inside me is a powerful woman, One who roars louder than a lion Yet is as soft as sheepskin. In me resides a superwoman, Fierce and visionary. The woman in me is so influential, Everything has landed on a silver platter for me, As beautiful as a rose flower, Yet I will remain bold. Within me is a woman who does not tolerate idleness. The woman in me is dominant, Everything is safely under control, Nothing falls off my guard. Though I am sometimes hurt, I still crack a grin, Because I was wonderfully created, That's why I'm called Mother Earth, A keeper of nations, That is me. Happy New Month everyone!!!!

Image
                                                                Flirting comes from the old French word 'fleurter,' meaning to flower. There are different definitions of flirting, and I'll list a few of them according to Peta Heskell (2002). ☆ Flirting is about giving out that little bit but not being totally available. ☆ Flirting is about fun, connecting, and getting to know people. ☆ Flirting is a way of showing people you are interested in them. ☆ Flirting is about giving compliments, smiling, and making people happy. ☆ Flirting is like being a butterfly—it flutters past in all its beauty, and when we try to catch it, it flies away, leaving us wanting more... ☆ Flirting is eye contact.

All these definitions define flirting, which simply me
