A late night walk

A trip to the bathroom

Never go alone

Every girl understands the buddy system

We are taught to be smart

Always double check

Always lock the doors

You would rather be safe than sorry

Constantly on the lookout

Guard is always up

Painting the worst light of every situation

and what it could have been

We shouldn't have to be afraid

We shouldn't have to double check

We should be able to walk alone

but instead we settle

Talking girls' trips to the bathroom

Being walked to our cars

Questioning every second look

Checking the backseat

Fearing the dark

Being reminded of what could go wrong

On TV

In movies

Why should we have to worry?
