You try and you keep trying,
but what happens when you don't succeed?
When you give it your all but you still fail?
Does anyone have an answer for that?
Mother? Grandmother?
Can either of you help me,
and all that I am going through,
since both of you were once young girls too?
But is it that you stay behind the curtain,
and make no squeaks, when I am punished?
You would have seen this coming,
so why did you not warn me?
Is it because you think all women must go
through such experiences to become women?
Or is it because you are afraid?
Or is it because it happened to you,
so why should it not happen to me?
Tell me, what are your reasons,
for abandoning your daughter,
when you should have been protecting me?
