“Girl” – Bin Bin

I know what to do. I know what not to do. You constantly mention and require that I do certain things. Even though I am sick and tired of it, I will do your chores. I will follow your instruction on what to do in public. I will listen to you when you talk to me. I will all these things but I do want some freedom.

I want to be able to make decisions on my own. I want to beĀ free from all this housework for once. I want to learn things on my own and live my life for once. I want no more than to get one day of freedom from your instructions. Instead of saying, “this is how to hem a dress when you see the hem coming down and so to prevent yourself from looking like the slut I know you are so bent on becoming,” you should be telling me how I should go out into the world and let myself be. Instead of telling me to, “make sure it gets plenty of water or else it makes your throat itch when you are eating it,” you should let me go into the world on my own and let me grow what I want.

I am willing to follow all your instructions but I just want some freedom on my own.
