PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I am not
The person
Most who
Grew up
With me

Would wish
To see
When they
Look at me
For my peers
Growing up
Never did
Have a fond

View of me
They would
Rather have me
As someone
Who would
Conform
To being

One of them
Than ever be one
Who spent
Her life
Rebelling

And writing
To try and
Make things
Better
Than the world

She did see
And yet
My friends

That is exactly
Who I grew up
To be
And when
It comes
To my views
On the world
No I would not
Change
A damn thing
Because
Even beaten down

And counted out
At least
When I look
At the world

I do see
The truth
And that you just
Can't beat that
