A day in my life
What if I am a girl?
Am i not human?
Can't i be treated well?
I always have to fight for myself ,
I don't get anything easily,
Yet boys are the tough ones .
Why should I depend on a man ?
I have a potential of my own.
Mom doesn't listen,
I have to learn what she knows.
Boys never grow ,
But girls should be ladies.
I have to cook i can't be idle,
I can't gain weight ,
I am a girl and have to look the part .
I have to be silent ,
And have to be someone's arm candy .
Hey ! Mom if you wanna make a difference,
You still can .
Just don't teach me only what you learnt,
Let me spread my wings,
Let me be myself,
Not just a version of pity .
