By Keerthana Elango
All she wants is to be free
Free to speak her mind
Free to eat the food she likes
Free of hurtful comments
She is not even greedy
Gets punished like she is
She better not act smart
Or be labelled as arrogant
She needs to be perfect
Forbidden to be human
Bears the burden of honour
Placed on her since birth
She realising her worth and
Seeing through the bullshit
Is a threat to the patriarchy
That needs her unpaid labour
Yet she rebels for her right
Right to be her true self
Right to follow her heart and
Right to take back her crown
