SHERO - The Survivor

He thought he could wipe out her beauty
And break her courage
By throwing acid on her pretty face
But he is ignorant of the fact
That her beauty lied in her heart and courage in her soul.
She slept silently in pain they said.
She was just in the process of making her heart and soul stronger than before
Because she knew that the world would show her pity and disgust
For the melted face now she bore
She knew she has to face them all with a smile
And fight with the world for justice.
Yes, she needed to make her heart and soul stronger than ever before
For, the monster had to be destroyed
And faith in humanity had to be restored
Victim they said she is, with a grim on their face.
Survivor she emerged as, with a grin on her face.

VOID

A woman of grace, courage, and wisdom
Of beauty, brilliance, and wit
She was a dreamer, young, and passionate
Of things, she could do with great skill.

A woman of attitude, elegance, and strength
Of confidence, dignity, and kindness
She was a fighter, fervent, and optimistic
Of things, she loved doing.

A woman stuck in the clutches of discrimination
Of gender, judgment, and patriarchy
She was a woman, muted, and restrained
Of things, she could achieve in life.

A woman cold, morose, and dejected
Of society, rejection, and impediment
She was a corpse, dead, and hopeless
Of things, that meant life to her.

Void.
