Just Because

You and I were born in the same year,
I was the lucky child of the family
so you were,
You went to best school,
So do I,

I was adorable and good looking
so you were,
You were sincere and all embracing
so were I,

I was everyone's favorite,
so you were,
You were pampered
So did I,

You started making money,
So did I,
I used to help everybody with that money,
So did you,

You got married
so did I,
You were new to the adjustments,
so was I,

I left my parents home
You did not have to,
I go to my parents place as guests,
You did not have to,

I need to be loving to everybody in your family,
You did not have to,
I need to follow your culture
You did not have to,

I need to forget my past
You did not have to,
I need to live up to everybody's expectations,
You did not have to,

You wish to live together with all in your family forever,
You could,
I wish to stay with my family forever too,
I could not,

You tell me that I want to part you from everybody,
You could,
I am already parted forever,
I could not even yell,

I had to and
You did not,
Just because,
You were born as a man,
And me;
A woman?
