Who can understand my pain? Dear God save me, Give me your love, Don't insult me. Give me your love… Mary Mother of God have mercy, I never loved him. My mother, you’re a sad memory But I have loved you. Poor me! I never loved him. I never loved him. Who can understand my pain?

If Christ Had been born A woman She would have been Hysterical

Valerie 04:36
She takes no prisoners Unfazed by passing seasons Her world is vacuum-sealed Her heart only speaks in prose She sees colours and surfaces The way only artists do But none of it enters her eyes cages, layers of straight lines And I thought I was strong and cold But her good sense shoots nails in my soul And I thought I had learnt to grow But in her hand I'm limp and small She strides through people's lives Carrying a baby and a pen knife And in fear I realise That I've never seen her cry

Marie 03:36
Traitor, traitor He told me I would be cured He laid traps for me He drugged me, He said he was Going to kill me, He spread my legs He bound my hands He bound my feet He killed my baby, He said It was good for me He hurt me I did not know I did not know

Lorraine 04:12
I find the smell of this place nauseating. Yesterday I noticed this funny mark on the wall, near the foot of the bed, and it runs along the room, it goes behind every piece of furniture. Someone has put that mark there, but I cannot tell who, or why? As I follow it round and around it makes me dizzy, and with that awful smell I am becoming increasingly overwhelmed.

Jeanne 04:36
It would be wrong of them to let me leave too soon, it would be wrong of them to let me leave too soon As you know there is a fine line Between true madness and hysterical symptoms, Untreated one would surely lead to the other. I was born doubly stricken, my mother was unstable And my father insane. They have before them a truly wounded creature. As they pointed out I have the gift The gift to deceive, I can as easily act sane When it is to my advantage What I lack is the will to sustain such a pretence Let them wait and see, I only wish to dance i've a gift to deceive, I can as easily act sane When it is to my advantage

Red tapestry Of incognita Invade my brain Flames of desire Rising higher And only women bleed Where are you now My companions? Don't stop running Don't fear your wounds Halos of pain And only women bleed
