By Darshana Mehta
Squinting through
The veil of traditions,
She saw
What the world
Never wanted
Her to see.
A realm
Full of
Possibilities,
Waiting for her
If only she
Breaks free.
Him first,
They always told her
To think.
Kept her aches aside
Found happiness
In his glee.
Never thought
That she
Was someone.
Could be
More than a wife or
A mother of three.
But now
That she knows
She won't
Let herself
Bend
Her knee.
She wants
To be
Someone,
And not
Just
Somebody's,
To break through
The chains
Of false
Emotions and customs
And be what she
Wants to be.

Very well written. Nice.
So I read a lot of the poems here and in almost all of them women are portrayed as sun, ocean and what not. You, however don’t. And I love that. There’s an honesty in your poem that I love.
Wow!!!
Beautifully expressed
“She wants
To be
Someone,
And not
Just
Somebody’s,"

Long way to go
