Rita Filipino Worker in Taiwan

Tears can not describe

The pain we feel in our hearts

Every time we see

The four corners of a semi-prison

That is Taiwan

What have we done

To suffer like this

Of sins we have not committed

Is this salvation or made by man

By persons without mercy and pity

Is it a sin if we have no money

That forced us to work abroad

Are our sweat and energy not enough

That we channel to our work

For the crumbs that we get in return

Is poverty God sent

This we should ponder

And understand why we live in misery

Struggling hard in the land of foreigners

OFW, our countrymen call us

But those in power ignore us

Whose only interest are our earnings

And we are made into milking cows

May I ask you

Is this just!!!
