Hi, I am Ankita

Hi, Ankita here.
Will you please tolerate me for just two minutes, dear?
It is because I just want to exchange some words with you.
No, I do have friends, but they are really very few.
Well, let me brief it down and start from the first,
because I feel that's the only way to quench your thirst.
Thirst that your eyes will be showing when I will start the conversation,
and promise me that all the emotions you ran through, will get a definite mention.
Okay, so it started two years back when winter hit  my state,
and how coincidental is that, that was the same time vermilion hit my fate.
Followed by some red splashes in between my thighs, or you can say in between my legs,
well  everything does not go according to plan, doesn't matter how much a person begs.
Yes, I did beg for love sometime,
but did not force my husband when he showed disinterest.
Then why he didn't repay me with the same gesture, when I too needed some rest?
Yes, I know couples do fight sometime.
But does that mean he will invade my body during my periods, or make my body rhyme,
with his? Because that's what he does,
and because I am a wife, I don't make a fuss.
In the last two years, he showed his love several times,
or should I say he showed his love to my vagina, if that at least rhymes,
with my emotion,
which is way better
than wetting my cushion.
Though for few minutes I used to be happy, for not having any pads there,
because those were the only time he was on me, and I was just lying bare.
Though I did protest yesterday,
because I felt that was my right.
Because his love was not very romantic but was more of a fight.
Fight with the body, which I already sold to him, at the time of my marriage,
he didn't even bother once, resulting in one of my miscarriage.
How ironcial is that after the protest, he burnt the same vagina which was once his life,
as because I am already dead now,
can you please pass this letter to another wife?
...Oh yes, thank you for listening to my last words!

The 70 years Old Man...

Seventy! It is not just a number, you see. Rather this number marks the soul which is free. Free from being bullied, because I am brown. I was bullied by the white people, who has the Kohinoor on the Crown. I was not the only one though, to see the torture; because I myself heard my brother to murmur, the pain he was going through that day. How helpless I felt because I had nothing to say. We didn't forget the date when our bond got lost; till date, we are both, paying the cost. Well, I personally did achieve a lot. Till now I cry and wonder how my babies fought in Kargil and secured me from other fights, I still remember the formation of Constitutional Rights. I still remember how badly I got terrified, when the Emergency period got me petrified. My this very brown skin was crowned in Miss World and Miss Universe. I went to the moon and back, and also succeeded in touching the Mars. I suffocate all the time because of the pollutions  caused by the cars. T

A lost Friend...

I lost a friend of mine at the age of nine. A friend who was as if, carrying my blood. Still now my memories do flood with all the moments, penned down by us. He got lost, because of a single fuss. A fuss that started way back, when his parents heard him cry. Asked him to stop, on his very first day, because crying is not what he should try. His parents' belief that tears would make him weak, actually made him weaker instead. It didn't matter now if he got beaten up, or got sick; he still wouldn't cry, even if his face become red. No one actually said to him that crying wasn't bad, it's actually letting your emotions flow when you are sad. The mistake we made by not knowing what real feminism is, put up a huge burden of responsibilities on those little shoulders of his. The shoulders that cracked up, because of those huge responsibilities. Lying weak at night but standing strong in the morning, was one of his abilities. Or perhaps, that was the

Hey you...

PERIOD! The word you do not want to hear, The blood you do not want to witness because of your fear, Is it only because it is coming out from the vagina? Or is it just because of the word BLOOD? Because if blood was the word responsible for your fear, you would not have leaned on to the girl, standing near. It is because, blood comes out of her body too, And that IS the same word that haunts you. Isn't it? How ironical is that you use the word Blood while cursing, And it is the same substance you may need, while someone will be nursing you because of the sheer lack of blood you may loose out of your vein, But even after knowing it is natural, you do not regret to sham a girl because of her stain. How sarcastic is it that kids now, can even smell misogyny around them, However for you, breaking a woman's hymen is not an act of shame. I wonder why not, because blood comes out of her bo dy at that time too, And it is the substance you are afraid of, ain'
