She’s called Ma Shakti,
may be that is why all her talents and shakti are not used fully.

She’s called the creator,
may be that is why her creativity and feelings are wasted.

She is called the hand that rocks the cradle and rules the world,
may be that is why she is killed in the cradle in some places.

She is called the woman behind a man’s success,
may be that is why she is not allowed to compete let alone succeed.

She is called the light of my life,
may be that is why in some places she is lit and burnt.

She is called a flower,
may be that is why she is beaten, tortured and wilted.

Yes yes yes, may be that is why,
may be that is why Woman’s Day is celebrated on March 8th.
