no..no..not my cup of tea..!!!
when you say you can't afford much for my studies..
as for my future you have to make savings..
that's not my cup of tea..
when you set limit to my qualification..
so that it would be easier to get married to a person..
that's not my cup of tea..
when I am told not to aim too high..
just to get off me soon and let you sigh..
that's not my cup of tea..
when you say boys and girls are equal..
but have different standards to compare..
that's not my cup of tea..
when you say to be original..
and also encourage to follow the trend..
that's not my cup of tea..
when you say that I must have my opinion..
and I am not allowed to put it to front..
that's not my cup of tea..
when you say I must take my stand..
and also teach to make compromise my friend..
that's not my cup of tea..
when you limit me with my choice of clothing..
and still comment on whatever I am wearing..
that's not my cup of tea..
when I am allowed to stay out all night for a class or an interview..
but it gets time bound to be with friends..
that's not my cup of tea..
This is MY LIFE.. MY CHOICES..
MY DREAMS.. and none of your business..
But even after declaring it aloud..
When you come to me with your stigma filled cloud..
I want to tell it again and again..
Till it has conquered your brain..
oh.. that's not my cup of tea..!!!
no..no..not my cup of tea..!!!
