Analysis of Be Quiet



Be quiet she hears the whispers all around
With her all responsibilities, she is bound
They gossip about her life and comfort
But are unaware, how much she is hurt
She married young, with dreams in her eyes
But as she lay on her bed, she often cries
Her husband doesn't fulfill her basic needs
But she always tries him to please
Finally, she gathers strength and brokes her silence
And speaks all about her husband's violence
So, be quiet, she whisper to those who don't believe
But for her courage, lots of appreciation she receives
