girls play with dolls
while boys play with balls
we’ve all grown up this way
not sure why
they’re all surprised
when we turn out gay
being straight
seems more surprising
at this point.
They lay norms and rules
of how boys should act
and how girls should act
yet they’re surprised
when we turn out this way
blinded by their ignorance
they only see
with their clouded eyes
that dictate society
they have become society
girls play with dolls
while boys play with balls
yet when we’re older
we’re not allowed
It’s forbidden
and out of the norm
though we’re just
doing as they’ve instructed
since the very beginning
