I Am With You

You need to be strong. Concentrate. You can’t break.  You can’t cry. As Raksha sat in front of the ICU with her old mother, who was almost unconscious. Holding herself together she tried listening to the surgeon, “Here is the most sever burn case I have ever seen. Krishna was burned 80 percent. Fire has eaten away most of her face. She has lost her child.” She started to feel heavy in her chest. Dizzy. Speechless. Hurricane of horrified feelings enveloped her senses. “The chances of her surviving are not very high.”

I Am the Half Population

I am killed before I could take birth

I am abandoned left to rot after birth

I have been waiting for the same Love

Struggling for all I am worth

Let me come into this world
I have purpose and dream of my own

I promise I will not let you down

I have the right talent, I can make you proud

In name of dowry I am sold

What to wear and hide I am recursively told

Pointing fingers still rest upon me

What have I done wrong, I feel so cold!

I am mistreated, abused every second minute

My face is burnt in the agony of smashed ego
I have 'No' right to say 'No'

I know you can't hear me mourn?

I am affectionate as your mother

I am the praying for your health as wife

I am the half population

I ask for respect and compassion

Beautiful Face of the World…..

“Fairy Tales”, think of it and the notion is sure to land you into fantasy world of magic and mirror, the land of fairies and witches, royal romance, talking chipmunks and yes! End(s) decorated with happy endings!!

“Have a look, isn’t this dress lovely?” queried my friend sticking an oyster green one piece in front, looking into the mirror, in her quest for enchanting gorgeous look.

“This evening you are breaking many hearts!!” I reported smiling.

It struck me then (and it wasn’t the first time) - we are so much worried about our looks, using so many resources to get an “Awww” look. Everyone wants to wear ‘beautiful’ or ‘handsome’.

After toddling days, child is occupied with moral tales which teach the young heart, how to dream sweet with values of truth and kindness, but It also familiarises them to the world of fancy and beauty loving.
