To Mt Strong Girls

By Apeksha Bhatia

Girls are the pride of nation.

Then why the nation is still having hatred for we girls.

They are cursed for being born.

They are cursed for being educated.

They are cursed for being uneducated.

They are cursed for being unmarried.

They are cursed for being so trendy.

They are cursed for being everything.

They are cursed for whoever they are.

Suffering from the sayings of narrow minded people,

And still not getting why girls and boys are treated unequal.

Busy in whistling the cooker on time,

But worried about how to go out and shine.

Wearing a fake smile from outside,

She is now thinking who the hell are they for not letting her to decide.

Mixing all the bad emotions together,

She is now working hard to get over this crap forever.

Worried that if she fails again,

She will now be forced to leave her aim.

She has now fallen in her own eyes,

Because now she can't rise.

Listen babe, you can be the achiever in any field you want,

Just stay away from those judgemental things that restrict you how to flaunt.

It's not the girls responsibility to fix the misogyny everywhere,

I just wish the fearless attitude to all the strong girls out there.
