She’s the one, who prioritizes her family,
She’s the one, who is grown in reverie.
She keeps understanding and adapting the myths,
She forgives and forgets; the way did Seth.
She finds herself alone at times, even amidst family,
She reaches some truths and searches for more.
Her life…sometimes at stake,
Sometimes with blemishes…disfigured.
She stops and sheds and moves on with the scars.
Dreary looks her road ahead,
Gloomy looks that tree up head.
Some stop at this junction and consume the authority,
Some deal with their fears defiantly.
Independent and expressive of their decisions hereon,
They take their roads designed and owned.
Deciding…or relying…self-reliant …or defenseless,
She still seems the happiest with her victorious smile evergreen.

This reminds me of the Silken Tent (Robert Frost) which talks of how women though may appear to be fragile but are yet responsible and steadfast in all aspects of life.
Here it goes..
She is as in a field a silken tent
At midday when the sunny summer breeze
Has dried the dew and all its ropes relent,
So that in guys it gently sways at ease,
And its supporting central cedar pole,
That is its pinnacle to heavenward
And signifies the sureness of the soul,
Seems to owe naught to any single cord,
But strictly held by none, is loosely bound
By countless silken ties of love and thought
To everything on earth the compass round,
And only by one's going slightly taut
In the capriciousness of summer air
Is of the slightest bondage made aware
Amazing!!!
It was such an Eye Opener, as in our society generally Women are considered as weak counterparts to our Male Heroes, who think they run the family n also thinks that they have all the rights to exploit Women. Its such a wonderful article. People who are going to read this wud actually cum to know about the sacrifices a woman does in her life, about her thoughts n feelings, about her wounds n about how she carries the BURDEN of being a WOMAN n still does it with grace n dignity...
