“No women deserves to be disrespected; to be beaten up; to be called b*****s or s***s. Assaulted or insulted. Even if she's a hooker.” ― Imam "Emy" Shah-----

The morning starts with her evening prayers

Lurid day fills her heart with famish hopes

Black, red, gray spots in every layer

She hides in the shadow, descend and stoop

The unbrush hair stick on wide shoulders

A dull uninteresting looks behold

Her face turns pale and round eyes grow bigger

An expression of a wife's stoic road

Patsy! in a manifold prison

Isolate her soul with blind obedience

Her wounds darn through the years of oblivion

The mind decides to wear out the patience

So his days are through and she weeps in grief

A month of tears for years of joyous gift!

No one has the right to lift a finger to anyone. The last stanza reminded me of the battered woman syndrome. i commend you for writing this powerful piece.

Thank you gabrielle for your comment about this poem... Fight for women's right to be treated equally..!

I think that when a person is being repeatedly physically and psychologically abused, her will to invoke her right weakens. i am truly glad that we already have the Anti-Violence against Women and their Children Law as a measure of protection. However, there are still very few women (particularly the married ones) who would admit that they are victims of abuse for fear that the family might be torn apart.

this is what reality shows us, the fading rights of women inside the social circle. but i am still hoping and crossing my fingers that women being abused will stand among the losing crowd. Thanks again for your comment, i highly appreciated this one!
