I AM A WOMAN.

I am a woman

I am the refugee of your world

You will not find me on any list

Don’t try to find me

I belong to no country

I have no home

I will never be found on your maps

I am an unnamed city

Undiscovered town you seldom reach

Unless you are lost

On your arrogant journey to success

You only walk through me

Like you walk through a dark forest

In the moonless night

You never call me by my name

You who claim to love me

Call me 

Mother

Sister

Beloved

Mistress

But you never call me by my name

I am an unheeded garden

A cactus uncared on the way of you caravan

I am a woman

And nobody knows my name

I am the refugee of your world

I don’t have any address

Don’t try to find me

I live on the outskirts of the town

You deserted long ago

My name is still written on those walls

You never read it

Don't pretend to read it

You are blind to my name

I am a woman without a name

I lost my name

My body

My respect

Only to preserve

Your name

Your body

Your respect

I am a woman you will never know

I am a dried up river

That refused to merge with sea of your world

Leaving behind innumerable smooth rocks

Sitting on which you brood about

How to run your godless world

I am the forgotten figment of your demented memory

And if you ever try to pretend to know me

Remember

I’ll only smile back

Remember that smile

If you will!
