Like A Girl

Ladywithaquill

I eat like a girl,

I eat more than my brother does.

I talk like a girl,

I talk about dresses and make a fuss.

 

I think like a girl,

I think about everyone but myself.

I read like a girl,

A hundred unread books on my shelf.

 

I’m just a dumb girl,

Who likes chess and physics and math,

I’m just a chill girl,

Who would really like a bubble bath.

 

I’m the pick-me girl,

Because most of my friends are guys.

I’m the girl’s girl,

The makeup’s smudged around your eyes.

 

I watch sports like a girl,

Those FIFA world cup football matches,

I go crazy like a girl,

Watching cricket players dropping catches.

 

I dance like a girl,

People think I have two left legs,

I cook like a girl,

I will burn a dish with just eggs.

 

But I hurt like a girl,

I cry myself to sleep at night.

And I love like a girl,

I love with all my strength and might.
