"Admiration Beyond Gender"
I know I'm a girl, too, But that doesn't stop me from admiring you. You, who walk with such confidence and ease, The way you carry yourself, with such grace and poise. I see you, and I can't help but feel a twinge of envy, For the way you light up a room with just your presence, For the way you command attention, effortlessly, For the way you make it all look so easy. I know I'm not supposed to feel this way, To look up to someone who's supposed to be my equal, But I can't help it, I'm drawn to your aura, To your strength, your elegance, your natural charisma. But we live in a world that likes to put us in boxes, A world that tells us who we should be, how we should act, So I'll keep my admiration to myself, quietly, As I watch you conquer the world, from afar. And maybe someday, we'll be able to break free, From the confines of gender stereotypes, And I'll be able to tell you, openly, How much I truly admire you, as a person, regardless of gender.
