My life...The way I chose it!!

My life...The way I chose it!!

2 mins

The day I was born as a girl

I became a Prisoner to this crazy world.

They told me I was free to be myself as long as I stay

But they always changed me to be in their way.


They told me I was perfect, that they won't let me down

But they bullied me for smiling, then asked why I frowned

They said I could be whoever I choose

But my life had to be saved by their views!


I wasn't allowed to be in love with anyone

And I could never have my own opinion

They told me that they deeply cared.

They told me it was one life we all shared.


They made me believe I was deeply loved.

But a dark empty room was where I was shoved.

They promise to stand by me everyday

But suddenly just left me astray.


They said I wasn't allowed to cry

Even if they told me a lie.

They told me I carried their pride

I had to follow the rules till the day I died.


They promised me they won't deceive

But locked me up so I won't leave.

I was told to love my body

They told me it was an angel that I embody.


I couldn't be free like the others,

I had to abide by the laws of our cultures.

They made me feel like I was worthless

they rendered me completely powerless.


They said I shouldn't make a sound

As they buried me alive into the ground.

Now... I will rise again from my grave

It will be different this time because I am no more their slave

It is the resurrection of my soul


And my passion will keep on burning till the day I sail ashore

I see the world now in a different way

This time, those people will have to repay

It is my time to stop being hopeless

Because I finally realise, I myself am a goddess


They can try and pull me back again

But I am not an animal that they need to train

I used to feel like I was trapped inside a cage

So now I can finally let out all that rage


So they might tell me I don't have a say

But guess what I am also the one whom they pray

So the question now isn't who is going to let me?

Now the question that comes up is who is going to stop me?
