No I’m not crazy,
And yes I’m for real.
I’m not depressed,
And I’m not controlled.
I’m not a fashion slave,
Nor am I any man’s toy,
I have my own opinions,
And I have my own life.
I have many friends,
I have a personality.
And I have my say,
I also have a word or two,
For those whose thinking is astray.
I don’t care if he likes my hair,
Nor do I care for leather pants.
I think I’m beautiful,
Because God don’t make trash,
I also believe that covering myself
Is also respecting my body and my mind.
Just because you don’t know if my hair
Is red or black?
Or exactly how tight my jeans are,
Doesn’t mean I’m not me,
And don’t have a personality.
Only those who I chose,
Will see the outer me,
And everyone one will see the inner me.
I’ll voice my thoughts,
And I’ll give my ideas.
Whether you believe I have any or not.
I speak silently,
And not just anyone will hear my voice,
But everyone will hear what I say,
And what I believe in.
I’ll walk with my head high,
Without making a sound,
And everyone will see me.
My dress stops you from
Judging me by my body or my clothes.
And forces you to judge me
By my thoughts and my ideas.
Not everyone will see my face,
But everyone will see its glow.
And not anyone can shake my hand,
But everyone will feel my firm hold.
Not everyone can ask what he wants,
But they all know what I would say.
I have a life,
And I’m respected everywhere I go.
Boys don’t bug me nor do they stare.
Because they have nothing to stare at,
But they are forced to look at me.
I am me,
And when I go out I’m covered in black.
Not a thing will show.
Not my hands not my hair.
But my thoughts, and my ideas will.
And when you see me,
You’ll laugh and stare,
Because my hair isn’t showing.
And you can’t see my face.
You’ll think I’m crazy or depressed.
But no.
Only you are for being so ignorant.

hmmm...you'll never survive unless you go a little crazy....sanity is not necessarily the healthiest thing in an insane world.niceone.gif


Their knives and their guns could not hold me, their drinks and their drugs could not control me, their education could not school me, their religion could not fool me, their women could never tempt me
their politicians could never rent me, but the babylon daughter still got my pikney!

obsession is a disorder.

If this is YOUR free-will and YOUR decision, than why in hell does it agitate you so much that you don't have people's approval? How are your poems, links, topics, posts, declarations BROADCASTED ON THE WORLD WIDE WEB any different than the females who walk down the street showing off their "nibbles and bits". To me, both displays cry out "ACCEPT ME ACCEPT ME".

funny, the topic of my wardrobe/makeup/hair only takes up about 20 minutes of my day which is how long it takes to pick it out, slap it on, put it up.confused3

I DONT NEED NO ONES APPROVEL AND THATS NOT WHAT MY POEMS ARE ABOUT..

I DO IT TO BE UNDERSTOOD SO THAT PEOPLE CAN UNDERSTAND THAT ITS A CHOOSE THAT I MYSELF MAKE.

HOW CAN YOU TRY AND COMPARE ME TO THOSE THAT WALK DOWN THE STREET WITH THEIR BITS SHOWING. THEY DO IT TO BE SEEN, WHILE I DRESS THE WAY I DO.. TO NOT BE NOTICED..

PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF..

AND I DONT KNOW WHAT YOU TALKING ABOUT AT THE END... confused3
