You ask us why we scream and fight for the others
You ask us why we carry so much anger
You tell us that we are safe, why cry for someone else
Let me tell you why
Because we are women
Because we have been treated wrong for as long as history goes back
Because we have been generationally violated
Because we have been silenced through time
And yet you ask why
The screams that tear through our throats are not just our own
This is the wrath of every woman who came before me
This is the scream of every woman who faced injustice
This is the pain of every woman who was tossed aside
This is anger, sadness, injustice, vengeance that has been burnt and woven into our DNA
This is not just me. Its the soul of every woman speaking through
This is centuries worth of fight
Generations worth of struggle
Our anger is ancestral
यत्र नार्यस्तु पूज्यन्ते रमन्ते तत्र देवताः।
यत्रैतास्तु न पूज्यन्ते सर्वास्तत्राफलाः क्रियाः।।
Touching the heart ❤️
