‘Happy’ Women’s Day

I cried involuntarily today.

Maybe, on the behalf of the women

who I know are not gay

due to their situations or their kin.

Heal

It hurts a lot today

but would heal tomorrow

If you stop associating

it with pain and sorrow

Time is sand.

It flows from our hand

As tight we may keep our grip

A pinhole and all of it would slip.
