Priceless!

A powerful women-centric poem by Madhumita, for Different Truths.

Sad but true,

How many years do

You actually live?

Or grow up to believe

That you are living!

Giving up yourselves,

For all, but thyself.

Living for the children,

For the men and women,

Who aspire for and acquire

All that you bear,

Keep on giving,

Selflessly granting

All your years,

Left with neither

You, nor yourself,

Not a thought for thyself.

Ageing but ageless,

Graceful & timeless,

You go on & on, tireless,

Full of divine brightness,

Brimming with non-ending kindness,

You are like a happy, addictive virus,

Woman you are forever priceless!
