Being a Girl

Matters not they 
Be taught 
To be strong
To be self-sufficient
They are educated
Well informed
Utterly smart & upbeat
Their presence  is felt
But alas there are hounds
Everywhere
Wanting to give in 
To their demands
They entice& engulf them
With their charms
No scope for reluctance is left
No way out but to give in
Lest  bullying and killing
Its a turbulent  time for a girl
What to do how to shelter?
They are victims of amorous desires
Being a girl is not easy 
In times so unfavourable 
When will people change
When will a girls  desire be honoured!.
