The rain is raining heavily
I move my legs on the hush road
My gaze at the glinted diamond at the bus
I feel, i am the only one there
I take an extra step
Because i fear i am a girl only one there
My mind drifts off taking me back
Taking me back to the time
When my mom told not to head out alone
Because she is afraid if i am a girl only one there
But i dared to walk alone
I walked loner thinking strong on my head
I twisted my legs like a runner
Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas begin with their wedding festivitie...
As if i am there to play a marathon but
My energy drains thinking that i am a girl only one there
My heart beats weightier and my pace
I doubt, being a only girl, if i am only less
I try to walk upon, rounding up my shawl over my face
I stretched up my pinkish kurta over my chest
I tried not to leave my chest bare or transparent
I tried not to put on the bright red lip gloss
Because i fear, if i am a girl only there
Walking swiftly on a hush road, is difficulty
And you never know what monster can come your way
You never know where your life will be headed
So, slowly, i take on a swift steps and gazed my eyelids to the ground
And i stopped
I stopped as i saw a giant monster coming to my side
I shifted my lane behind and walked on the road i had never been
Yet, the monster came along my way and caught me
I shifted a bit to the corner, walked like a hell
Yet several things glittered in front of my fiery eyes
To never to see my dreams and family again
I closed off my eyes for a bit
And saw there was no one
I saw that it was the only monster
That was inside my head
And nothing else
So, what if i a girl walking on hush road
With a mid length bare chest
A glowy bright red lips
Or a tight pinkish pyjama
Dare to walk alone, its not
Because i am just a girl, but i am a race
I am that race of human that creates
I am that race of human that builds
I am that race of human that makes history.
So, i dare to walk alone on a hush road.
