Menstruation Taboo
Menstruation Taboo
Our period, our pride
Why so awful to hide?
Yes, we bleed,
And it's a normal deed.
It accumulates for new life,
Yes, for that we thrive.
Why do we suddenly become impure,
While the child we deliver is fully pure?
Why not touch?
Why hype so much?
Believe me, you can't imagine the pain;
It seriously sucks our brain.
Hormonal changes hike,
With so many emotional strikes.
We don't want special treatment,
But kindly avoid the judgment.
Why can't we talk?
Why can't we walk?
Come on, it's not a disease,
We simply want ease.
You want us to take rest,
But when we can't drink water, it's waste.
Listen, girls,
We are not at all impure.
Nature says, "Hats off, girls, you are growing."
Everyone on the way is bowing.
Eat whatever we like,
Food never decides our flow hike.
Plants don't discriminate,
Whether we touch them early or late.
We don't need isolation,
It's simple menstruation.
Buying pads is not shameful,
We are normal; you should be grateful.
Physical activities help us to drain,
In fact, we can enjoy the rain.
Any disturbance in our date
Can be discussed with our mate.
Dear society, be merciful,
Let us be zealous,
Don't let us feel shameful.
