im tired of being what the
society wants me to be
im tired of the endless reasons
a girl should be like this and that
im tired of being judged
for what i wear, for what i do not wear
im tired of adjusting to be accepted for who i am

for a time, i want to be
what i want myself to be
**** the society and the misogyny
the inequality and patriarchy
**** all the people who are dictating
for what a girl should be and should not be
im so tired of having to fit in

im still a girl
a woman
vulnerable
no different
despite all the things i want to be
