Title : HER WORTH UNSEEN
A never- ending journey of proving her worth ,
In the eyes of strangers and in the gaze of loved one's .
She is forever on trial proceeding through ephemeral filters ,
a constant scrutiny.
A life lived in shadow of validation , seeking truth ,
She walks the tight rope of expectations balancing doubt and determination.
In school life she navigated gang wars being a silent observer,
Silent repressions veiled beneath fake smiles.
Cliques and hierarchies has always whispered her worth ,
Sometimes being weighted down under language , her voice lost in translation.
Every moment she was tormented with a repression ,
Stripped of confidence, her voice never could blossom.
Her dreams didn't receive that cuddle ,
nor a gentle touch.
They withered away like the autumn leaves ,
Unexplored and unvoiced in the world of inhibitions , immature and unearthed, lost before they could take roots.
Women have been confronting challenges to prove their mettle ,
In a world where biases run deep and equality still a battle.
In every step , when her father or husband dies ,
Society 's gaze questions her worth , discriminating to an ensnare .
A life bottled into sorrows , lack of confidence to vociferate ,
Women have been subjugated to societal dictates and taboos .
Their voices stifled and their choices debated ,
Their genuine rights often subjected under the chains of patriarchy.
Even their own gender often perpetuates the cycle ,
Internalized patriarchy as a silent killer .
A mindset that needs a change today,
To liberate the victim from the chains of suppressed notions.
A lifelong conditioning , threatening under societal norms,
Must be eradicated over the flesh and blood storms .
Equal footing is a major need to exist in a world ,
Where men and women both govern a life that fulfils the dreams of a home.
