Let me flow

by Gayatri Devulapalli
(Bangalore, India)

Don't stop me and store me
To become a dam and wait is not what I want
To open the lock when needed is not what I want
Let me flow, let me be me

Don’t let me see the bars,
To live in a cage is not what I want,
To play with me when you feel like is not what I want
I want to fly because that is me.

Don’t prevent me from jumping
To be tied up to rules is not what I want
To live like an adult is not what I want
Let me jump in the puddle and be me

Don’t judge me and push me
To belittle you is not what I want
To lead you is not what I want
I want to be equal and just be me
