“It is I who drink lonely
Drinks at twelve, midnight, in hotels of strange towns,
It is I who laugh, it is I who make love
And then, feel shame, it is I who lie dying
With a rattle in my throat. I am sinner,

Betrayed. I have no joys that are not yours, no
Aches which are not yours. I too call myself I.”
― Kamala Das
