        The aim of the present study was to investigate the issue of female loneliness in the shadow of patriarchy and its reflection in the poems of Simin Behbahaani and Fatemah Na'out. The research statistical universe subsumed Simin Behbahani's collected poems and "My Name is not Dificult" by Fatemah Na'out. The studied sample included the poems of Simin Behbahaani and Na'out which refer to the subject of loneliness. The research was based on a descriptive-analytical method. The analysis was done by extracting the most obvious manifestations from the reflection of the loneliness problem in the poetry of Simin Behbahaani and Fatemah Na'out and through analyzing and comparison of these feminine and poetic soliloquies.

         Shirin and Haani in the poems of Khosrow and Shirin Nizami and the Balochi poems of Haani and Shaimrid have many similarities. Both characters are in a male-controlled space and firstly, men treat them as a thing (object). In the beginning, Khosrow and Chaakar try to capture Shirin and Haani as an object. The present research compares the characters of Shirin and Haani and their female activism and activity with a descriptive-analytical method and answers these questions: Are Shirin and Haani agents in these two stories? How do they achieve female activism in a patriarchal context? The results of this research show that Shirin and Haani are not passive, but have action. The female intervention of Shirin and Haani in these two stories finally overcomes the patriarchal approach. In encountering the patriarchal discourse, they are finally promoted to the position of subjectivity with the agency. Shirin does not remain passive in the face of Khosrow and Shaapur's demands, and after a while, she overcomes their masculinity and wins over Khosrow with her activism. Haani is not passive against male hegemony and overcomes the patriarchal view of Chaakar and Shaimorid; finally, with his activism, she releases the chaakar and acquires Shaimorid. In this way, Shirin and Haani not only free themselves from the control of male hegemonic discourse by presenting a female counter-discourse but also they elevate the character of Khosrow and Shaimorid at the end.
