Rise against the Injustice



College life awaits- new dreams, new opportunities & new challenges



Happy enthusiastic & excited were my feelings



But the very first day I stepped out



All I could feel was horrified, scared & ashamed!



Because a group of boys stalked, commented & laughed



They laughed even harder when they saw me vulnerable.



Though they were doing wrong



I got worried and curious;



I was in a dilemma. What wrong had I done to be welcomed like this?



I kept on thinking.. had I worn clothes too short or was the colour too loud?



Had I kept a smile too broad to attract those stinkards?



When I couldn’t get answers, I reached outto my father



He said, “Beta! Rise against such rogues,



Break your silence against such horrors,



And fight like your own saviour!”



And then I decided to let those beasts know that I wouldnot allow them to make me ashamed



For something I haven’t done



For it’s my right to roam whenever & wherever I want



I will not allow them to rattle me;



And most importantly I will fight back by stepping out with more confidence & courage;



I will raise my voice louder to let those criminals know that theycannot stop me from conquering the world!
