By The Virtue Of Being A Woman (Poem)
I'll be labelled a dirty woman,
If I raise my voice against those dirty breeds,
The molester smirks, and I get shamed,
The father watches with accusing eyes,
My skirt is at fault or maybe my walk,
And I lose my dignity by the virtue of being a woman.
The catcalls don't seize,
As the perpetrators enjoy the breeze,
Some say how can a man be wrong,
The fault was in my eyes as I dared to gaze,
And the family blames with accusing eyes,
The molester smirks and the victim dies by the virtue of being a woman
The next time it happens,
I bear through it
Because no one stands to save me at least,
I lost my voice, lost my battle
The molester won because he was a man just like my father
And I'm helpless by the virtue of being a woman
So, I make peace with the world,
I lay my rules,
I shall not raise my voice,
Find a bunker to hide,
Remember to write why I fight,
There's no justice, no god, no karma for some,
I lose by the virtue of being a woman.
