If I Were A Boy – Sana Adhikari Chhetri

Additional information

At some stage, every girl feels this I guess
Or may be I’m being too poetic, for I do!

You people out there,
I don’t care if man or woman
Yes you!
Oh please don’t stare at my bra-strap
Rather tell what dress suits me better
Don’t search for cleavage
For rather my smile looks better
Don’t judge me by the length of cloth I put on
Or better,
Not by the words “so-out-of-way” in this piece lol!

If I were a boy,
& my beauty outside was so not a need,
Trust me i’d leave those heels
‘Cause my feet aches indeed

If being a girl,
Little things didn’t make me cry
I swear I won’t make-up
Just ’cause puffy eyes need to hide.

If only, me staying out late night,
Won’t be judging my dignity
I’d go out so fearless
‘Cause I love the twinkling city

If my every second was not asked to be detailed,
I could have found better,what pulled me in!

If freedom was mine, & security was always on time,
I would have gone alone to travel
To explore the mysterious world, I imagined as mine.

If I were a boy,
I could have been more,
Than a writer with this piece
More like a better man
Fierce in every bullshit!

If only being a girl, didn’t clip my wings,
I could have been a better me,
Than the man in my dreams.
Than the man in my dreams.
