So, I was bored today, and wasn't in the mood to work on any of my stories,ao I decided to write a poem. This was just written on the spot - like what I normally do when writing - and it's sort of based off of me and my thoughts. OK, heavily based off of my thoughts, but still.

I figured I would share it with all of you because you all are so awesome and I just love you that much. So here it is, I hope you guys like it!

PS. this is a free verse poem.

I Will Be Me

You look at me, and what do you see? A pretty little girl, just doing what she’s told?

I follow the crowd, am a member of the flock. This is who I am?

A cute little girl with long curly hair, pink checks and big eyes. I am right in society’s mind.

I sing in a sweet voice, dance around cutely, and be as nice as can be.

“The perfect little girl.” “She’s so cute.” “You must be very proud of her.”

I am me, a cute little girl. This is what they tell me, so it must be true, right?

I followed the crowd, been a member of the flock, but I don’t feel like me.

A pretty girl with long curly hair, pink checks and big eyes. This is right for me?

“Don’t cute your pretty hair, you’re too cute to have it short.” “You’re such a doll.”

I’m shy about my voice, I feel awkward around those who are my “friends”.

Can I be something else? Is this truly me? Is this what I was meant to be?

I’ve followed the crowd, been a part of the flock, but I’ve never been me.

This world believes in right and wrong, trapping us in their cage of lies.

Telling us what we are and what we can do, but I don’t fall in line.

I do what I’m told, I’m a good girl, why can’t you just let me be?

A beautiful girl with long curly hair, pink checks and big eyes. This is right in society’s mind.

This is what you want me to be?

I’m not like you, I don’t think like you, and I don’t like this look for me.

“Short hair and baggy pants? That’s out of the question. You’d look too much like a boy.”

Well guess what? I cut my hair short, I wear baggy pants, and I love who I am.

I won’t follow the crowd, I won’t be a part of the flock, I will just be me.

I hope you guys liked this short poem, and please let me know in the coments below if you want me to post some more poems in the future. I hope you all have a wonderful day, and I just want to let everyone know that I won't be posting any new chapters of any of my stories until after Monday, Febuary the first. I have Mid Term Exams next week, so I have to focuse on that for the next few days, but once they're over I want to get some chapters up. So please wait a little bit longer alright!!!!

Thank you!
