So overwhelmingly full of life, Elegant inside out And still the highest form of aesthetic Infinitely pure and untainted Most resilient, most supple Redefining every limit, every boundaries set But running the smallest of errands unkempt You, the fitting mother, sister, daughter, wife You, who they worship, and on whom they take jibes You, they educate, and who they ask to stay quiet You, they adore, still look at with their ill eyes You, for who they campaign with respect You, who is on their tongue in times of distress You, who stands like a mountain against every fall But you, who is called weak and is prisoned to four walls You, who protects life in its most subtle age You, they say need protection at every stage You, who has never had the strength to say no You, who has accepted every challenge in one go You, whose appalling smile mesmerises even God You, whose silent tears are not valued at all You, whose voice takes away all fear You, whose voice is their greatest fear Under whose shadow a man grows And whose image he tarnishes with the abuses he throws. You, lady. You, the creator of life, of happiness, of bonding, of humanity You, the goddess of beauty, of ecstasy, of strength, of feminity Stay calm, but never stay quiet Stay warm, but not elastic Stay humble, but stay in their sight You, remain undeniably superior Though unaccepted Out of sheer shame Yet, the pretty hearts know Every giant war for them is for you a fulfilling game.

The creator. The goddess.
So overwhelmingly full of life, Elegant inside out And still the highest form of aesthetic Infinitely pure and untainted Most resilient, most supple Redefining every limit, every boundaries set But running the smallest of errands unkempt You, the fitting mother, sister, daughter, wife You, who they worship, and on whom they take jibes You, they educate, and who they ask to stay quiet You, they adore, still look at with their ill eyes You, for who they campaign with respect You, who is on their tongue in times of distress You, who stands like a mountain against every fall But you, who is called weak and is prisoned to four walls You, who protects life in its most subtle age You, they say need protection at every stage You, who has never had the strength to say no You, who has accepted every challenge in one go You, whose appalling smile mesmerises even God You, whose silent tears are not valued at all You, whose voice takes away all fear You, whose voice is their greatest fear Under whose shadow a man grows And whose image he tarnishes with the abuses he throws. You, lady. You, the creator of life, of happiness, of bonding, of humanity You, the goddess of beauty, of ecstasy, of strength, of feminity Stay calm, but never stay quiet Stay warm, but not elastic Stay humble, but stay in their sight You, remain undeniably superior Though unaccepted Out of sheer shame Yet, the pretty hearts know Every giant war for them is for you a fulfilling game.
International Women's Day 2017 To all you women out there, have all my love. We need to stay as united as we can be. We need to understand each other before making others understand us. Enlighten your self, inspire theirs, Live your life and brighten theirs. ❤
