SUGAR AND SPICE

they say girls are made of sugar and spice,
so why are we treated naughty, not nice?
when ever a problem, we're accused the cause,
it doesn't seem right, but who made the laws?
it's a mans world, all the way around,
no matter how we speak, no one hears a sound.
we're to believe always in the wrong,
sme ole thing, same ole song.
how do you prove, you love no other,
only wanting to be, a wife and a mother.
when fauyltneeds another to blame,
why is it always the same.
the one god made so tender,
treated wrong becaus of gender.
it seems to ake some men strong,
to go through life, treating women wrong.
life should be happy, not cruel,
but with some men, that seems to be the rule.
no one likes life, going through pain,
especially us females, with nothing to gain.
why do men fear that we will take all,
when they do the damage, and we take the fall?
get what they want, spit out the rest,
leave an empty shell, not looking our best.
again we're only naughty, not nice,
stripped of all the sugar and spice.
that only sh0ws they take what they want,
when we have no more, then they taunt.
go look for fanother, their life goes on,
just like the sunrise, comes a new dawn.
never a look back at what they tossed,
never realizing, they are the ones, who lost.
now i sit here, wondering what to do,
tears fallingdown my cheek, you only think of you.
rolled over on your side,
again i crawl, empty inside.
the problem is no respect, something earned, not taken,
never taught, never shown, true meaning, mistaken.
i know that all men are not the same,
and some women, you can place blame.
just all with respect,
happiness in return, no regrets.

we are all equal, we are all human, we all have same needs and emotions. most of all we all need to be treated with the same respect.

Haha, well done. A fine expression of the frustration of your existence. I think that we all have problems with something or other, there's no escaping it. This poem was well-written and you held the rhyme scheme pretty well (it didn't sound forced).

This reminded me of x-tinas song. Anywho, it is so true. Though, when you look back, like lizzie borden, they thought women and girls were to innocent to do things liek that, and know the tables have turned, but we are still all classified as one.
