Just Because..

Just because I am a girl

Doesn't mean I'm "asking for it"

It doesn't mean you can do whatever you want to me

But it does mean I know how to fight back.

 

Just because you're a boy

Doesn't mean you're superior 

It doesn't mean you're allowed to objectify me

But it does mean I'm allowed to be who I am.

 

Just because we're together

Doesn't mean I'm your "territory"

It doesn't mean I have to please you

But it does mean I love you.

 

Just because we broke up

Doesn't mean I don't miss you

It doesn't mean I can't live without you

But it does mean I'm strong enough to walk away.
