Who Do We Become?

These barriers they’ve
Set up. The rigid walls we try to
Destroy, but fail each
Time. The feminine code:
Wear skirts, no pants. Cook dinner. Carry babies.
Marry a man. The masculine code:
Be tough. No tears. Be dominant. Don’t you go and
Break the mold. Don’t you dare
Challenge the
Status quo.

We create our own
Reality. We create our own
Worlds. We put our true identity on the
Shelves far beyond our actual
Reach. We wear masks
Designed by those who barely know us, because we
Need to hide who we
Truly want to be. We fear the
Gaze. The judgement. The Stares. The
Walls built up are ultimately our
Enclosing fate.

Who do we become?
A manufacture by those surrounding our being.
