**NO COUNTRY FOR WOMAN**

I am a poor black nubile
burden of my parents head
on monday the boy saw me for a while
i was shying and was getting red

he saw me,we talked and then he was gone
on tuesday,i was rejected said the phone
i was feeling dejected and alone
but on wednesday,again i was shown

i am the same poor black nubile
burden of my parents head
he too saw me,we talked for a while
but 'no' yes a 'no' was all he said

days then months then years passed
but all i heared was a big 'no'
i believed marriage is in god's hand
but now i think its a one man show

that fortunate day also came
when i turned into a married woman
i thought all my dreams came true
but no marriage is not everything you do

one night he came half drunk
punched,kicked and dragged me
i was so hurt and i couldn't even stand
all i was paying off for my being "she"

the next day my in laws were beating me
reason was nothing but the less dowry
i was so hurt and i couldn't even stand
then i got to know there is no woman's land....:(:(
