Poem: Hourglass

“Oh, you are a girl, and girls
should stay in limits.”
Mum said to me in every bit.

I’m a traveler,
an explorer,
a storyteller,
yet, here I’m talking
about the limits I live by.

“What will they say when they see you
entering the house at this time?”
Said, father
When I came from a show
that I organized.

Why the society,
when it comes to women,
so biased?

We have made limitations a norm
to structure our self into a form.

To the hourglass that is running every second;
Life is a limitless trip,
Don’t tie yourself and let it slip…
