Yes I Am a Eunuch
Yes, I am a Eunuch,
‘Coz that’s how God wanted me to be;
But I too have hands, legs and body,
Two ears and two eyes to see.
Yes, I am a Eunuch,
And a laughing stock for people out there;
Who feel I’m born as a sin of my past,
As someone to be ridiculed and stared.
Yes, I am a Eunuch,
I too need two hands to clap,
Does that make me abnormal?
Or a unique piece to click a snap.
Yes, I am a Eunuch,
Neither by wish nor by choice;
But that doesn’t steal me of my right,
To fight back or raise my voice.
Yes, I am a Eunuch,
And I’m forced to dress like a girl;
Only to save my pride and vanity,
From the stinging words you hurl.
Yes, I’m a Eunuch,
But I have the courage to rise after I fall;
I have the strength to beat my misfortunes,
I TOO AM A HUMAN AFTER ALL!!!
