I Am A Girl

Oh! Wow! What NEWS!

I am about to get a life!

I am about to take birth….

I had to struggle for nine months,

To come to life, to this world!!!!

Oh! Wow! What NEWS!

I am about to get a life!

I am about to take birth…

It’s a Girl, It’s a Girl sound echoed in my ears!!

But I in my world, happy, sleeping unaware!!!!

I felt the warmth, coziness, love, and care of my mother,

But…

What I heard???

Why I Screamed???

Who these people are??

I am still unborn

And they don’t want a girl?

What kind of world is this?

Months passed, Days passed

Labour room…

Mom is in pain and,

I

In the joy of getting a new world to cherish,

But I do not want to perish.

Oh! Wow! What NEWS!

I am about to get a life!

I am about to take birth…

No one was happy except ME,

No joy, no celebration

But Anxiety over faces..

This apprehension vanished with my sparkling smile

I Smiled and Smiled..

People Taunted, Jilted, abused, hated, blamed, hit, discriminated..

Called me Cockalorum, snollygoster, pillock

But I struggled, struggled, and struggled..

And achieved the Zenith of success..

Do I need to think again????

Who thinks what?

Who treats me what?

I am a GIRL and,

I am Proud to say that

And will always say that.

Yes, I AM A GIRL..

Who has dreams, who has every right,

So brawny and vigorous…

Oh! Wow! What NEWS!

I got a life!

I am born…

With a sparkling SMILE.
