Because I'M Not A Girl Poem by Lalkrishna Varavoor

I don't know;

why you have to shiver even in summer

and to sweat in the chillness of winter

I don't what you say;

Because I'm not a girl

When i stand alone

in a bus shelter;

and when walk on a vacant way;

I only think of being bored;

Because I'm not a girl

When someone lends me;

A helping hand;

A compliment;

Or even a smile;

I don't doubt or smell a cheat;

Because I'm not a girl

I don't have to keep

A hidden distance of fear

Towards my father; preacher; or a teacher

Because I'm not a girl

When i read the verses of Tora;

I won't see any injustice

Neither complaint of family morals

Because I'm not a girl

And here on earth;

I can see a far more colours;

hear sounds that you never heard;

Life is often more peaceful

Because I'm not a girl
