You think that if you tell him, Im going to really care, <br />All he’s going to do is sit there and watch you pull my hair. <br />All I am is rebellious in this family of four <br />You should be thanking God that Im not a whore. <br />Im normal as every other girl <br />Who’s supposed to love life as a precious pearl. <br /> <br />You think I am a spoiled little brat <br />All I do is watch TV and get fat <br />Open you’re eyes and see <br />You were just as bad or worse than me! <br /> <br />I am growing up fast, I know you can’t tell <br />My life is a mess and that aint swell <br />You want me to listen, pay attention and see <br />You want to live my life and are taking it away from me. <br /> <br />Part of being young is making a couple mistakes <br />Causing a lot of pain and little heart aches. <br />This is the way I am the way I will always be <br />I will never change or hide the true me. <br />You may not like the way I am <br />The fact that I wont study or flunk an exam <br />But I promise if you would just leave me be <br />In the future a respected young lady you’ll see!<br /><br />Arielle Perkins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/look-out-and-see-the-real-me/
