Born in a faraway small-town,
Nestled in between the hills,
Big city life we could only dream of,
As seen on T.V or movies.

How I wished, I could be the urban girl,
Confident, educated and socially aware,
Yes, we did go to school and studied too,
But still were engulfed in traditions and taboos.

I wanted to break away from it all,
Taste freedom, live my life independent,
But wrath of relatives, I was then subjugated.

Would I always live with my wings snapped?
Will I never breathe the life, I’ve dreamt?

One day finally, I got my guts gathered,
My life’s ambition, I boldly declared,
I don’t want to live a cocooned life,
Give me the blessing, I’ll struggle and survive.

With perseverance and determination,
I did, what I willed,
I was born again, my dreams fulfilled.
