BATTLE OF IDENTITY

Spread the love

They say this is the work of a girl, do it!

They say behave like a girl!

What does it mean?  like a girl? 

Why this difference? I am I, 

I will exist as I wish.

You are a boy, play with cars, not dolls,

You are a boy! How can you cry like this?

So what if I am a boy? I have emotions too!

My likes dislikes are already set. How to

Laugh, cry, play, everything predetermined.

So what is the meaning of my existence?

Where is my identity? I am but 

 A puppet of society, its norms

This is the practice, the answer is given always 

Talk and behave as society decrees, 

Neither thoughts, nor likes, nor speech

Are your own, your very own!

What if the girl played with cars, climbed mountains?

What if the boy cooked, cleaned vessels?

Shall we try this shuffle? Shall we start? do it? 

Will the world reverse? Will it turn upside down??

Now this campaign is for survival

Of identity, of satisfaction,

Speak up, step up, march ahead 

Time to bring in social changes 

Time to build a new society.
