I Am A Woman Poem by Neha Srivastava

I am a woman, I should be timid - They say
I am a human, I know no limit- I say,

My existence is not meant for your judgment
Crushing me is not a sign of your triumphant,

My love for you has always been abundant
Why am I the one to make all the adjustments,

Look into my eyes, you'll see a twinkle
Savaging it, is so sinful,

My demand for freedom makes you reluctant
Clothed in societal norms, I have to bear its repercussion,

How are the governing laws so different for Both
What makes you so nervous of my growth,

Why do I have to fight for what is my right
Why do you enjoy my plight,


Being submissive is declared my attire
No one hears what my heart desires,

I am not the one to dance on your note
I am a volcano that erupts on my own,

I don't demand anything extraordinary
All I seek is equality,

Equality to Breathe without fear
Equality to be safe my dear! ! ! ! !
