A Melancholic Anecdote

Rating: 2.7


Mama, its so dark here,
but i don't have any fear,
I feel heaven so near!
To you, am i so dear?
Inside you i feel so warm,
inside you i feel so calm,

Please tell them to leave me,
I'll be a good baby,
what did i do?
i just wanna be with you,
though i can't see,
i think you love me,

I'll love you till the day i die,
i don't want to fly,
i don't want to touch the sky,
i'll be good, i'll try,
i won't ask when, where, who and why!

mama i won't cry
if someone beat me,
mama i won't feel shy,
if they embarrass me,
mama i won't ever lie,
I'll learn to knot my tie,

i have been waiting for days,
to see your pretty face,
mama do you hate me bcoz I'm a girl?
have me just like a wooden toy,
i'll try to change into a boy,
but please don't leave me!
Tell doctor not to kill me!

(TO ALL THE FEMALE BABIES, WHOM I LOVE THE MOST)
