I am a Woman; I am Born, then why can’t she?
I am a Woman; I had a happy childhood, then why can’t she?
I am a Woman; I can read, then why can’t her?
I am a Woman; I can writ, then why can’t she?
I am a Woman; I can laugh, then why can’t she?
I am a Woman; I can talk loudly, then why can’t she?
I am a Woman; I can talk to boys, then why can’t she?
I am a Woman; I can walk freely, then why cant she?
I am a Woman; I can wear whatever I want, then why can’t she?
I am a Woman; I can express my thoughts and dreams, then why can’t she?
I am a Woman; I can love, then why can’t she?
Why is she killed even from the womb?
Why is she harassed even from her childhood?
Why is she restricted to read, write ,talk and even laugh?
Why is she not allowed to wear dress of her choice?
Why is she not loved by anyone?
Why is she seen as a body rather than a body who is alive,
Who can see, hear, talk, feel, cry, and be happy
She is here, waiting to love to be loved
Rise people. Help her.......
