Don’t Tell Me….
Don’t tell me I am a daughter, lakshmi of the house,
When you think I am a burden
Don’t tell me I am a sister- the epitome of love
When I am killed in the name of Honor
Don’t tell me I am your love of life
When I am raped and abused
Don’t tell me I am a wife-the equal partner
When I am treated like a slave
Don’t tell me I am a mother— i am your GOD
When I am thrown in an elderly home by children
I am
Not a property to possess
Not honor of the family to be saved
Not a reproducing machine to procreate
Tell Me ….
Even if you are single,
Even if you are a widow
Even if you are a sex worker
Even if you are a Baanjh
Even if you are a lesbian
Even if you are disabled
TELL ME….
WE LOVE FOR WHAT YOU ARE
A HUMAN, A WOMAN

जिसके लिए सवाल है , उसी के उत्तर है , मेरे नही ..
नशा सा छाया है ,
मेरे पास सिर्फ़ काया है,
तेरे सवाल तो गहरे हैं,
मेरे पास घने अंधेरे है,
घमंड का बवंडर है,
उसकी registry मेरे under है ,
एक घमंड तोडो..गे ,
मैं दूसरा ले आउगा,
तुम रिश्ते बदलते रहना ,
सवाल करते रहना ,
कौन आएगा ?
क्या कोई मुझे बदल पाएगा ?

A successful woman doesn’t beg for love she earns it. People don’t love you for what you are, people love you for what you can do for them, for love after all is a product of evolution.

Aruna, here I am not begging for love for one , but claiming my right that I am a person not a relationship in this patriarchal society, so dont love and respect me as i am reproducing a machine, or for my roles but cause i am a PERSON
