I have darkness filled inside me
I didn't wanted this darkness to fill
I feel hopeless & helpless

I am harrased
when I tried to cross a Road
when I tried to catch a Bus
when I tried to walk through the street
when I tried to buy groceries

I don't know what was wrong with me
They said don't wear revealing cloths
They said don't go out alone at night


I was standing out in the crowd,
wearing a cloth which covered me top to bottom in daylight catching a bus
Someone came and touched me Inapproiately.

I feel I know the Problem
I am woman, that is the problem
I feel sorry to think this way

I want to know who taught them
who said, a woman is a public property
women are traumatized everyday

I am tired but still I have to face it.
I am tired but still I have to pretend
as nothing happened.

I want to tell whoever out there
who think, women are public property

Believe me I want to slap you hard
We are not anyone's property.
