Defining Me
this is the poem that I read at the poetry slam last night and I scored a 24.5 out of 30. I would like to thank one of my friends for helping me with it, so thanks Khaine. mwa.
Who am I? Everyone else seems to know. You define me with your lables and your titles, your cliqucks and stereotypes, and yet you dont even know me.
You say I'm gothic, I'm a bitch, and I'm a whore. You call me an angel, a princess, and daddy's little girl. You say I'm I'm depressed, dark and evil. You say I'm sweet, I'm loveable, and I am beautiful. And it's apparent that thats all you really know.
You call me gothic, but do I look like abuilding to you?
You call me an angel, but do you see a halo?
You call me a bitch, but do you see me crawling around on all fours?
You call me daddy's little girl, but can't you see I'm a woman?
How can you say I'm depressed, dark and evil, or even that I'm sweet, loveable, and beautiful, if all you know is what you see, and all you see only goes skin deep.
