-
You cannot just paint my lips,
Powder my face,
Shadow my eyes,
Or fix my hair.
I am not here for your entertainment.
You cannot re-live your life through me.
I am my own person.
Not a doll, like Barbie.
I came into this world with a purpose,
Not as a plaything.
Whenever you fight me,
I fight back.
Your words cannot break me,
Even if they hurt.
Laughter will be my response...
With silent tears in my eyes.
But I am not willing to commit the suicide of conforming.
If I were made to be a puppet,
Then I would have strings.
You are out to prove me as the worst.
And that your problems are caused,
By me.
Conformity, Conformity.
How I hate it.
It is seen every where,
And especially is in the reflection of the mirror of society.
But worst of all, I can see it in the reflection...
Of your eyes.
Yet I know I may never reach your standards.
But sorry,
I am still your daughter.
