In this woman-centric poem Sunita tells us what is it to be a woman of passion, exclusively in Different Truths.

I’m a woman and I take a pride in being so,

I have slowly made my pride grow,

From my childhood to my womanhood.

And always up righteously I have stood.

Woman, I have been an epitome of strength

For my self-respect I can go to any length.

I spread an aura of divinity in me,

Its only for there you to open your mind and see.

Don’t take me a symbol of sex and beauty,

To love and care for all is my prime duty.

But I need respect from one and all,

I stand with my feet on the ground and head held firm and tall.

I’m a woman of passion and that’s my trump card,

I flow like a river, sometimes fly like a bird.

So let this Woman live in me,

For this is what makes me what I always wannabe.
