Weights Of A Woman Poem by Umasree Raghunath

I carry the weight with a smile unseen
The world on my shoulders a quiet routine
Work and home collide in every step
Balancing love with promises kept
The apple cart wobbles but I keep it straight
While my own dreams pause and I navigate fate
A child to raise and a partner to aid
In silence my wishes slowly fade
My hands are full but my heart is too
Filling the gaps where strength must renew
The shoes of a helpless man I fill
While my own desires rest, time stands still
Through sleepless nights and endless days
I find my strength in hidden ways
A woman, a mother, a silent guide
My sacrifices are where my love resides
Every sacrifice is a stepping stone
Every woman goes through for her crown
I am not alone
But have many to shine
Despite all sacrifices,
I feel like a queen
Standing tall on edifice
Of living life best n clean
