I like to write a poem
for I want to express my emotions
it makes me reach the inner recesses of my self

Day by day 
bit by bit as she lay 
I saw her dying 
some times in the pillow hiding her face,i saw her crying 
she knew by now that she would not survive 
everyday she touched objects around her just to feel herself being alive 
she was becoming frail 
eyes sunken,ashen and pale 
her energies had sapped 
Bed ridden she felt herself trapped 
she could barely speak 
she was just a bag of bones ,so weak 
she could not even turn on her own 
so she could never be left alone 
her near and dear ones ,seeing her state, felt devasted 
she looked so tiny ,wasted 
but she would meet every one with a smile 
till her last when her soul rested in peace awhile 
the cancer had gnawed at her 
day by day ,bit by bit had devoured her 

Day by day
bit by bit as she lay
I saw her dying

people were taking care

Dear God,
When will that day come when I will feel safe to be a woman in this country...
when there will not be different sets of rules applied for being a woman...
