Born with imperfections,
I was taught to hide my skin
Under me
My parents yelled
What would people say
If you are too diseased?
Will you get married then?
Born with imperfections
I was taught to hide my tears
Underneath
My parents yelled
What would people say
If you are too sad?
Will you get married then?
Born with imperfections
I wasn't supposed to feel helpless
Tell me,how is that supposed to happen
All people do is
look at my forehead
Covered with scales
I wish not to have
They don't look at my eyes
So big and dreamy
They don't look at ears
That hears everything they say behind my back
They don't look at my hands
That write
All they do is
Look at my scales
And feel disgusted
Ayurveda
Homoeopathy
Allopathy
I tried everything
But will my parents give me one thing
That always cures?
Little bit of acceptance
That's all I need
So today,
When I swallow my medicine
I'll swallow my pride too
Because you can still get married if you have no pride
Right?
Born with imperfections
But know what
I don't want to die all diseased
