But Sister....
Men-
They like to see us smile
No doubt they want
Us cheerful you say
But sister-
If it isn't them
Who push us toward
A joyless state
They like to see us smile
No doubt they want
Us cheerful you say
But sister-
If it isn't them
Who push us toward
A joyless state

I must be missing something between your poem and your note. "But sister- It it isn't them ...." to me implies that men aren't necessarily pushing women (you) towards a joyless state.

Hi there! Thank you so much for catching my error. It should have been If. I can clearly see where the confusion came from. I have corrected it and removed my note so as to avoiding the same thing from happening to other readers. Thank you for reading and commenting on my poem. I appreciate it!
