Make your own days, women! And be Happy Everyday!


Newspaper brought a strange face of women
The few lines read said much about today
The candlelight vigil and a promise from UN "A promise is a promise: Time for action to end violence against women"


Half-veiled face with a gloomy regard
With a child in obscure she stands
I see no hope in the way world portrays
In black and white so sad she looks

Who can stop violence towards her?
Who doesn't know that the answer is far?
If anyone knows that Women are humans
That's enough to clear this mess

She is not an object to focus, nor a topic to discus
She is your Mother, Sister, Wife, Daughter, and Friend
Do not promise that you'll take care
For she is the one who took care of you

People must learn to respect the kind
The female species who are called Women
Better to learn the basics well
And put themselves within the limits?

Focus and discuss about virtues
That can be sown in everyone's mind
That physical strength is not enough
To prove that you are a human kind

Promise that we'll not be denied our space
To pursue our dreams and decide our goal
Promise that you'll not act as our care takers
But leave us to walk our way alone

Stop calling a woman 'Poor', she is 'Power'
Don't sigh for her, she is too High
Don't look down to find her, she is Equal
Don't cry for her, she is Joy

Women, find the way good Lord has planned
Don't get chocked or clogged in dread
Grasp the guts to draw the lines
Give yourself a chance to live

No mud can stop a lotus bloom
No cloud can stop the sun shine
Stay away from women, all those who slay
Someday, some way, she'll be fine in her own way
