Ethereal

~14~ I wish I was not born as a daughter.

Glittering shining from head to toe,

I just took the wedding vows.

Surrounded by faces all new,

My eyes wandered looking for you.

Wanted you to hold me tight,

Saw you smiling with teary eyes.

Few moments ago,I belonged to you

Now I have a family completely new.

You hugged me and wiped my tears,

You never looked so weak all these years.

But tradition is above us they say,

I wished so much this day could have come a little late.

But then how can I fight my fate.

You never made me feel this, mother.

But today I wish I was not born as a daughter.
