You say it's just a talk, like normal people making a conversation It's part of being social, despite the annual scrutiny and judgment "Hello, there Have you gained weight? Sorry, your change's quite drastic there No worries, you can lose it again and also look great" "So, any boyfriend lately? No, how come? Don't you get lonely? Let me introduce you to someone I know You should give this one a go?" "When are you getting married? Come on, remember your age You're already qualified as an old maid Fetch a man with a better bait" "Hey, you two look great Wait, no kids yet? Have you tried any methods? Come on, every married couple wants kids" "Your little one is gorgeous Have another one or two It'll be much more glorious and your first one will have playmates too" "Don't give me that frown You know I care, right? I don't mean to bring you down I just want what's best for you so no need to pick a fight" Uh, excuse me? Breathe...breathe...breathe... You say it's just a talk This conversation has been normalised far way too damn long Oh, well - it's the risk of being social the annual scrutiny and judgment for everything that's considered wrong!
