The seven ages of Woman!
She was playing in her mother's womb, unaware of this world and its gloom..
It was the first time, she was abused..
Strangely, even before she took birth..
Even before she could take a glimpse of this beautiful mother earth..
But she survived, against all odds and hardships..
She survived, only because her mother was there, to take care of her..
She was abused again, but along with her mother this time..
The little child couldn't understand at that moment, that being a girl was her only crime..
She grew up too fast, from a stupid kid, to a ambitious teen..
She saw the dreams of bringing a change, which nobody had ever seen..
She was abused again, and was told, that girls are meant to change, and not bring any changes..
She cried that day really hard, and wanted to drown and die, in the holy waters of Ganges..
But time flows away quickly, as nothing else ever does..
At 22, she told her family, that there's a gentleman she really loves..
Beaten physically, tortured mentally, and forced to bury her feelings and her 'foolish' love..
She realized that day, for the first time, that there's no God, who's sitting up above..
Tied in a marriage with someone completely unknown..
All her dreams were suddenly flown(far away)..
Her man, who was meant to take her good care..
He abused her daily, but never did she share..
Now was the time, she was going to be a mother, and hence was awaiting for the enormous joy..
While she was expecting only a child, her family expected a baby boy..
As you know, there's no God sitting up above, in that blue sky..
She was abused this time, as it was a girl, but since expected(and accepted) was only a guy..
Shakespeare too differentiates when he writes about 'Seven Ages of Man' and not woman..
So how could I expect rest of the world to be fair and just..
I know this rhyme too would be lost somewhere soon..
And these words would be buried down with time and dust..
If only, Shakespeare would have written this one, instead of me..
This too would've been a source of trust..
If only Shakespeare had given a thought..
This art-piece would have been a "read must"....
