Poem Of My Life

Poem Of My Life, by M-chan

Boy, don’t think I’m that girl who fawned over you.

Don’t think I’m that girl

Who wrote you love letters and talked endlessly with you.

Don’t think I’m that girl

Who stayed up at midnight just waiting for your next email reply.

Don’t think

That I’ll let you walk all over me.

It was okay before, but now I’m not gonna take it.

I’m seeing it now,

That you’ve been that thorn in my side,

Thinking you can act like you’re way better than me.

Stop giving me those looks,

Stop nodding when I put myself down,

Stop ignoring me when I finally think we’re friends again.

Maybe I made a misstep,

Maybe I was the one who did something wrong,

But I can’t be the only one.

So get it in your head

That I’ve moved on to someone who can sit down

And talk to me about deep stuff

For a whole class period.

Get it in your head

That I don’t want to be trampled anymore.

I’m taking a stand for myself,

Saying no to cruel words and actions,

Saying yes to trying to rebuild what we had.
