Can You Hear Me?

In the womb of the mother,

I can hear her crying

What makes her bother?

Maybe it's me, the thought keeps flying.

The girl again, they sighed!

But the heart of a mother cried

Maybe I'm a curse

And this makes me feel worse.

And even after all this, I'm born

Her heart wrecked and she felt torn

There are woes all around

And In the guilt, I drowned.

Did I do so wrong?

Or this grief shall prolong?

Amidst the haze of my existence

Remains no answer at any instance

Incurred with the society's odium

Compelled to abide by their tradition,

Constantly bruised by their words

Forever, like those imprisoned birds.

Still, I am the glitter of her eyes

And in her eyes, my universe lies,

Her affection overshadows all

Smiles when she sees me crawl.

Though he wanted a baby boy 

Yet he brings me every toy,

Tirelessly he works every day

Brings me a gift just to make my day.

He protects me from all adverse

Holds my back in every reverse,

Carries me on his shoulder throughout

Believes in me even though I doubt.

But one fine day everything got lost

I got raped and the merriment frost,

Amidst the bloodstains, I lay numb

Naked on the floor, I succumb.

Society won with flying colors

Lost in the smoke Iike subdued dullers

They murdered my glee and my soul

While she sobs who would console?

Who would mend while he breaks?

Who would soothe him when his heartaches?

Who would give her a reason to smile?

Who would accompany her all that while?

I am dead but still dying

Those dumb yells and crying

The dark now endear me

I am dead, Can you hear me?
