women don't lose your identity


When you are single
You have your own name
You write and sing it proudly
On papers and documents

You have enjoyed your freedom
Living with your identity
You have a face and a name
Every one calls you

Then you get married
You suddenly change your name
You hide your identity
You take your husband's name

You become Mrs So and So
You are proud with ring on your finger
You smile graciously losing your identity
So far so good when you are still married

When the split in marriage
You suddenly realize you want your name
You see it in your divorce papers
You see it as your identity

Where are you all these years?
You hide behind somebody's name
Women of the world
You shouldn't lose your identity
