"Journey from being a girl to women _________________________ From a girl, Till becoming a women. Is a long journey, Many emotions we lost and gain. When we are small, We are call kids. Easily we get mercy, For any wrong deeds. That time frame for us, Is nothing less than fairy tale. We make castle of dreams. In the vast ocean,we dreamt to sail. But now we are taught to become, Compatible for a groom. He will take our responsibility, As if we can't make our own , people assume. "You are obease and dark", "Cause my son like girls who are fair" These are just not words, But a source of pain that every girl bare. A question that I always thought of, How a girl is dressed, Why should always meet the standard, Of people's beauty test. These unspeakable discrimination , Should come to an end. every women deserve respect, Whether it is your wife ,sister or friend. ©Arundhuti Biswas "
