Miscommunication,
Crying, stress, frustration,
Wanting understanding,
You're just too demanding,
Not getting respect I'm due,
Causing my anger towards you,
Too ignorant to see,
How blind you are to me,
I'm here, but not for long,
The ending to the song,
The song of childhood,
Will soon be done for good.

I liked this one a lot. Makes sense too....yer growing up. You need to be treated like a respected adult as long as the respect is reciprocated back

I enjoyed this one.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I'm with Dopey on this one. It's a great poem! And it's hard for our parents to realize that we're growing up. They love us and that's all they can see, is that we don't need them as much now. It's hard for them just as it is for us. He will respect you after he accepts your growing up. Give it time!

*that what does not kill us makes us stronger!*

*Everyone can deal with pain in their own way, some things are just harder than others!*

Nice work, Nicole. This is a very powerful poem, and you really expressed yourself well. You should always be respected by everyone, and it doesn't matter if it's your mom, dad, or dog, you should always have the respect that you deserve. Nice work, I enjoyed this poem.

Very well written. Your frusteration is very clearly expressed. Great job.

*hugs* i went thru something like this...it caused me hell...quite literally. now my parents are my best friends...tell them exactly how you feel. it might not work for them, but it worked for me. at least try hun.

I don't have an attitude problem You have a perception problem.

Heaven won't have me and Hell's afraid I'll take over.
