Women

by Rupradha Mookerjee

We are not your property that you enjoy,
We are neither use-n-throw things, nor toy.
We are not weak enough to lie at your feet;
We are women, we would never accept defeat.

We are mothers / sisters / daughters,
We won’t be victims of your cruel tortures.
We can’t give up ourselves to quench your heat;
We are women, we would never accept defeat.

We are epitomes of affection and care,
For our family we, women, are always there,
We won’t surrender to the harsh way you treat;
We are women, we would never accept defeat.

(To all those inhumane people who treat us like toys.)

Yes, victory is yours, and defeat ours;
smile is yours and tears are ours...
but you are our pearls and gems you are,
whether by our side or very very far!!
