I know what I am
and what I am capable of,
I don't want anyone to tell
what should I and shouldn't,
I know my duties, limits and responsiblities,
Even I love to do chores for my loved ones
but that shouldn't suppress me,
Like a stagnant water in a well and
tell it is a duty of a girl to do so,
I ache for the world which believes in that,
fulfilling the needs of a family is,
not only just comes under feministic criteria,
Even men can do all such things,
which he so calls as a feminine duties
Even now you call me as a feminist,
then it is alright it's up to you
but I call me as a voice of equality.
