I want a house in the middle of the ocean A house that floats on water And an afternoon nap with a blank mind To wake up to the sound of seagulls singing, to erase the screams of battered women from my mind. And by watching the dolphins dance, the image of the bodies hanging in the air will disappear from my memories.

I want the sun to burn my body, not the whip that hits me, and let the night wind caress my hair, not let it be pulled in rough hands.

I want this dream to have no end...
