She starts off as a daughter
sometimes cherished othertimes burden.
Traverses a placid or Rocky terrain
then is put up for slaughter.

In the new domain
she's an operative nonstop
at other's wishes she jumps and hops
her self restrained in chains.

Her burden passes from one to the other
In-laws, husband then son
she follows them while they run
Her desires she has learnt to smother.

A tear or two is spent
The air remains calm, is not rent
with wails or regrets as is norm
with death, a social form
but quietly she manages
to freedom she is sent.
