why am i here?
what am i supposed to do??
why do i have to put up with this crap???

why is it always me
who gets rejected
for all the school dances??
and the perfect girls get
with everything they could want
why do they want what ive got???

whenever im happy
they come round and
show off what thy have
and i dont

why is it i put up with this
why do i let them
steal my life right outta my hands?
why is it you like to see me in pain?
and not knowing what to do and how to deal with all this??

or is it you dont know
what it is you want out this life
so you come and steal
what is makin me happy
thinkin it will do the same for you???
you just have to ruin my life dont you???
just to make you feel all the more powerful......

i dont know why you do the things you od
but you only do them to help yourself
without thinking how you affect
everyone else around you

you are a lil miss perfect
who loves to cause everyone else pain


this was written about a group of girls at my school who have no idea what they want from life so they try to steal everone elses lives thinking it will make them happy....... just like the person who they stole it from

this is me.... like it or not....
its who i am!
i am woman hear me roar

There's a group of girls like that at my school too, I'd never date any of them, I can't stand people like that. I like the way you put it. An interesting read. x

hey. i'm a guy, but i know how you feel. i'm an observant fellow and have seen this in teenage girls.

i think you would take pleasure in knowing that the type of girls you are talking about are only going to suffer in the end. (They're probably suffering now)
The best thing you can do is be strong and happy yourself, to make your life steadfastly happy no matter what comes around.

I mean, you only have one life to live, right? You might as well enjoy it! Happiness comes from within, not the dates and the dances and the stuff.

Oh, by the way, here's my poem, which touches on the same issue as yours, but in a different perspective.

I like this, and i can definately relate to it. There are a group of girls lke that at my school to, and there are even a group of fuys like that! Some of my friends even act li,e that sometimes. Like when i am happy about something, they point out the downsides of it, and make it to hwere i am not happy about it anymore. Anyways, i relly like this and i hope to hear more!

hey thanks for the replies
i agree there is only one way of being happy and that is by being true to yourself and to your friends.........

since writing this poem ive changed my life motto to:
'live life full and free.... be who you are and who you want to be.... its the only way to be happy.....'
thanks again for the replies.
