Centuries have passed
Decades and Eras
Gone by!
Our plight has still remained
The same !
So where is Development
And progress?
Every Era called us by
Various names
From concubines , to what not !
From Harems to Brothels
Names changed a new
Not our plight !
We are still given dirty looks
Respect never known
Not one understood us
We all have a story
Just like anyone out there
Some were forced here
Some in the name of poverty
Some disillusioned and duped !
Each more heart rending than the other !
Ohh!! The Harbingers of Morality !
Tell me which one of you have not come and seen any of us ?
We screamed for centuries!
It all fell on deafened ears !
Stoic souls
Our plight continues till today !!
Our souls were sold
Our hearts buried forever
We are only reduced to
A priced list of sorts !
Everyone puts a new
Price Tag !!
Alas !! It still continues
My poem on a picture prompt , on social issues .
Alas! Its so disheartening to know different sides of society. The sufferings of womenkind to survive in this world. Their sacrifices to prove themselves...!
