Make Me A Man (for a week)


Make me a man for a week,

Let me feel what Freedom feels.


Let me have guilt-free rough hands and hairy legs,

Let my grooming tools be scissors and blades.


Make me a man for a week,

For there is only one life and here I am - a woman. 

Not ever knowing what dominance feels like,

Nor having a natural right to call the shots. 


And if it can't be done on this earth,

Then make a man in Heaven.

And bestow upon me wisdom,

Like you did on the first man Adam. 


Don't get me wrong, I'm all for women. 

But haven't we seen and been through so much agony!


If only I got to be a man for a change,

I'd know how carefree life can be!

Hollow

Umpteen unsaid words aside Battles of feelings and logic beside Many abuses arise and subside But why still do I feel hollow inside? Sights, sounds and senses around To work, play and parties I'm bound Am I really the square peg in a hole that's round? Why do I feel in emotional hollowness I'm drowned? Something mystic is concealed deep within I can't put a finger to it, it's hiding in a ditch If these are demons put to rest Why doesn't the world let them be? Isn't that the best? My hollowness can be filled with nothing but love True love that's pure just like a white dove A minor slip up or friction of ideas so simply turns a friend to stranger To reveal your emptiness to every other, isn't it a real danger? For he who knows, doesn't question And he who questions, doesn't know That time heals wounds and time builds people And slowly but surely the hollowness of your soul becomes nothing more thaṅ an apparition!
