so what

So what if I
Rather be in jeans and sneaks then a dress and heels

So what if I
Rather be at a baseball game then a ballet

So what if I
Rather throw on a hat then spend hours doing my hair

So what if I
Rather carry a gun then a purse

So what if I
Rather be considered a tomboy then a girly girl

Does that make me less of a woman...
Or does that just make me more of an interesting one..

Do you mind

If I
Take a moment to forget everything you just said
And
Give you a chance
To
Try again
Cause you could sure use it.

bottled up thoughts.

Is it wrong that I miss you not?
I am not here to
Be your chauffer
Drive yourself around
I am not here to
Be your bank
Get your own damn money
I am not here to fix your problems
Stop fucking up
I am not here to
Cry over your woes
We all have them
In fact I am not here at all.
I was there to
Share the driving
I was there to
Help each other through broke days
I was there to
Help you learn from your mistakes
I was there to
Return my shoulder to cry on.
But one day our friendship became a one-way street
And I sped down it
Without so much as a look in the rear-view mirror

i remember

I thought I forgot to miss you
Then I realized I missed how to forget you.

just one of those days

So today
I don't care that you smile at me
I don't want to smile back
I don't care that you didn't mean to bump into me
I did mean to bump you right back
I don't care that you are trying to sit with a family member
I am comfortable, keep it movin
I don't care that your just trying to be nice
I would suggest saving it for someone who cares
I don't care that you could use someone to talk to
I don't want to listen
Today,
I just don't care.
But if it'll help,
I'll give you a quarter so you can call someone that does.

light weight

Red light, Green light
And I'm off,
Full speed ahead
Shed
All of my past
For a better future
Never looking back
Wack
Jak
Stack, Dollars
On the way to the top
Stop!
At nothing
For the look of pride in my parents eyes
Because it is all for them, And always will be
See
I am nothing short of my mother's daughter
And I refuse to have it any other way
May
I say that the sun shines wherever I am
Because I carry my own sunshine wherever I go
No!
You will not take my sunshine away
With the hatred you spew
If you only knew
I am
Short in stature
But a giant in heart
Don't mistake my kindness for weakness
That wouldn't be smart
I am more then just a pretty face
So don't waste
My time
Tick
Tock
Goes my internal clock
And still I am in NO RUSH
Hush
I am enough baby for myself to handle
Candle, light
Bright
Right
Or Write
My thoughts down
Not to sound
Poetic
Just to release myself from their weight,
I feel lighter.

i deserve better

I am tired.
You expect me to be there for you
While
She expects you to be there for her
And
What can I expect?

I am tired.
You want me there,
But
Only when you want me there,
While
Any other time you couldn't care, less

I am tired.
I hate you, almost as much as I love you
You drive me crazy
But
You love me
Its a beautiful...
Friendship

I am tired.
I am no one's almost someone,
I am no ones only sometimes.
I am tired.
I am someone's one-sided want-
My heart doesn't always listen to my mind.
I am tired.
