Thank you Maa

Swimming in the water that drowns me

I was happy with my *solitude*

Then God gave me senses

I came to know

I was not alone

You were there with me

Your love will stay with me

I was a part of you 

I just couldn't wait to see you

Your love I can feel 

Palpating through your veins and me

I was a part of you and you were all mine

And nothing can do us apart then 

Then one day u visited ur family friend 

And I was hit by sounds again and again

I cursed God for giving me ears

I heard all that he said

I cried Ma Plz let me live

Let me breath and see the world 

Through me in a garbage once I m born

But Plz don't take what's mine alone

I knew You would fight for me

You promised to always protect me

Then I heard what u said 

And I decided never b born again

You told them this was not the first time

That this is ur constitutional right 

U wanted me gone

Coz I was a Girl to b born

Thank you mom for saving me 

From this world that I would never see

Don't worry I don't blame you 

I might have expected too much of you

I thought you would love and fight for me

But u were a slave to misogyny

These r my first and my last words

Something you would never heard

Waiting here for the knife to come 

Thinking of what I learnt 

Can you see me now 

See me with ur sound waves and ur guns

See as I wait for the instrument to come 

Look how my tiny hands r shivering

Look at me turning here and there

And now it has entered you 

Tried my best to stay away

But I always seems to find me anyway

I tried to grasp it with my hands

But they r too tiny for that

Plz mom save me if u can

In my last breath I ask you to love me again 

My shoulders r pierced and grabbed

Look at my lips shivering in fear

My cry u never hear

M kicking all I can 

Trying to hold on to anything I get

And here comes the pull 

Good by world here I come
