Who am I?
A diaper,a skirt, jeans, suit, burkha or a saree.
Where am I?
On earth where everyone is devoid of humanity.
What religion I belong to?
A hindu, a muslim, a sikh or Christian.
Who will protect me?
No one can. No one will.
In this world with trash filled brains,
I am Asifa. I am Nirbhaya. I am Amma ji.
Who are they?
Yet no one remember their names.
One of you. One from you. One is you.
One having the same thinking process,
Blame her because she is a girl; who cares
About the age of a victim-Minor or adult? Matters only when – deciding the punishment of an undeniable sin!
My Dreams, my visions, my aspirations;
All gone in vain under your uncontrollable thirst and cravings of this flesh of mine! After all that I’ve suffered, endured, lived;
Where will I be?
Still on heights where you can not reach.
What will I be?
Still a better human that you can ever be.
Who am I?
Still and forever a stronger soul…still undefeatable.
