Who I Am???

Buat Muslimat...Puisi Ini Khas Buat Anda,
Betapa Saya Benar-Benar Menghargai Anda
Tahu Menilai Baik Dan Buruk Kehidupan Anda..
Dari Kami Sebahagian Daripada laki-Laki Yang Menghormati Dan Mengasihi Anda..
Kerana Anda Adalah Ibu Kami, Saudara Perempuan Kami Dan Juga Isteri Kami....
What do you see when you look at me
Do you see someone limited, or someone free
All some people can do is just look and stare
Simply because they can't see my hair
Others think I am controlled and uneducated
They think that I am limited and un-liberated
They are so thankful that they are not me
Because they would like to remain 'free'
Well free isn't exactly the word I would've used
Describing women who are cheated on and abused
They think that I do not have opinions or voice
They think that being hooded isn't my choice
They think that the hood makes me look caged
That my husband or dad are totally outraged
All they can do is look at me in fear
And in my eye there is a tear
Not because I have been stared at or made fun of
But because people are ignoring the one up above
On the day of judgment they will be the fools
Because they were too ashamed to play by their own rules
Maybe the guys won't think I am a cutie
But at least I am filled with more inner beauty
See I have declined from being a guy's toy
Because I won't let myself be controlled by a boy
Real men are able to appreciate my mind
And aren't busy looking at my behind
Hooded girls are the ones really helping the muslim cause
The role that we play definitely deserves applause
I will be recognized because I am smart
