FGM shall be eradicated (poem)

I have a scar in my soul

As part of me has been cut
Mutilated and stitched
With no hope to recover
Where is my clitoris?
Where has it gone?
Has it been buried?
Or just thrown away?
I wish I knew
Only half of me is alive
My other half is gone
In the name of culture
I am an impaired lady
Unable to enjoy sex
As wholly as a total woman
But through the tears of despair
Rays of hope are cutting across
One day sanity shall return
Humanity shall reign
FGM shall be eradicated
But until then let us fight
Let us save our daughters
let us stop sexocide
