Hickey
In the society of barbies
She took birth.
Begging her mom to buy her a toy car,
"Boys play with cars, you take a doll"
At the age five
Coming home after playing.
"Why you play with boys?
You are a girl, need to play among girls."
At ten
Saying 'bye' to him.
"Why you talk with boys?
They are bad".
On her thirteenth birthday
She received a God gift,
Way to becoming a full woman.
She could never really understand, the gift.
"Always describe it by saying, 'P'
Don't tell to the others!
Not wear white pants,
Never go to the school toilets in this state."
Time elapsed,
At twenty - one
Standing on precipice of womanhood,
She got 'Hickey' on her neck."
Friends,
"Hide it quickly!
It's Hickey
Only boys can show it."
Why you can't show your Hickey?
It's the sign of your love
Love bite
Not any sin.
You say, you are free
You are not free until
"You can spell 'Period' without any code words,
You can enjoy sex without sake of doing it."
