SORRY, a confession

Vidya Ramesh

I’m sorry!
he groped me.
But I shut my anger
jailed my frustration
and let the darkroom
witness the cry of helplessness..
 
I’m sorry!
I was blocked my way
and been commented;
on my breast, cleavage
lips, hair, hands….
and what not?
I’m sorry!
I faked my emotions
and walked away..
just like that…
 
I’m sorry!
I saw him molesting!
yet.,
I never turned to her!
but prayed(?!)
for the helping hand;
invisibly chained..
 
I’m sorry!
My boy friend sexted me!
I panicked; without uttering
thrashed my head to the pillow
and sobbed.. again..
 
I’m sorry!
I wasn’t afraid
but shocked..
of lustful world
gazing lecherously……..
