If I Were a Boy
if i were a boy, i could then marry the girl of my dreams
if i were a boy, i could then start a family of our own
if i were a boy, i could then open doors and pull out chairs, order the finest wine and dine you
if i were a boy, i could then wrap my strong arms around you mimicking a fathers hug when needed the most
if i were a boy, i could then be seen in public while people glare with envy wishing it was them instead
if i were a boy, i could then be apart of family events, hang with the elder uncles and shoot hoops with hosts of cousins
but the irony is, i was born woman
