This is the second episode.
I was 15 then
I am 18 now
And all you say after meeting me is 'I met a rape victim, wow'
Oh society you make me smile
Wanting social awareness and acting like all crimes are fine
You are angered by rapes and offended by murders.
You post is all on social media
And act as supporters
Thousands of pending cases
When questioned, you give us
'I feel sorry for you' faces.
I live in a society
Where its okay to get raped
Its casual to be eve teased
Its random to be thrown acid on
Humanity, where are you? Gone?
What's not okay is
Me, abusing
Or asking for a condom at a chemist's shop.
For I'm a girl
I should be only busy with self grooming
You think I'm a showpiece to you're eye?
Say that once more
I'll friendzone you and also make you my bhai
They say, she smokes, she drinks, she wears shorts clothes.
Why wudnt she get raped.
Clearly she called for it
You speak stupid
You call for being shot in your head.
Oh wait, I saw you picking up on that woman,
Are you sure, you don't want her in your bed?
You want to fuck a woman
But marry a virgin
You throw acid on her,
Clearly you can't face rejection
You call her a slut
Because she wouldn't sleep with you
You desire only her
Oh yeah She's out of the blue
I looked up the dictionary's to find words equivalent to 'slut' for a man
There are none
Oh patriarchal society
You think women are objects of fun?
Its happened to a saree
Its happened to a burqa
It was fixed by their parents
Under the concept of arranged marriage
A dignified way for a life of prestige.
My sisters are getting raped too
No full time coverage of it on media
Rather a small line moving at the end of the screen
What's being covered above is
Its mandatory to give protection to cows
The rapist didn't rape my body
He raped my mind too
He didn't fuck my vagina
He fucked my soul too
Yet I forgave him
For he is gone.
What about this society
The society that violates me everyday,
For I'm forged of steel too
I am here to stay.
