It Doesn't Make Us Like You

It doesn't make us like you

The comments behind our backs

It doesn't make us like you

To comment on our shorts or our pants

It doesn't make us like you

To be scared to wear leggings

Do you think it does?

Or do you do if for your friends?

Because it doesn't make us like you

And its not "cool" to make girls feel less

And its not "cool" to make your dumb comments

And it sure doesn't make us like you,

No it does the opposite

So if you show your affection

By bringing others down,

Just know it doesn't makes us like you

All it does is spark hatred

So don't comment on our bodies

And be the bigger person

Because it doesn't make us like you

  • To Be a Poet

    To be a poet is not to write poems

    No,

    Most anyone can do that

    Most anyone has done that

    For school, 

    Maybe

    To be a poet is to see a tree

    And not just see a tree

  • stop. drop. roll.

    stop.

    stop running.

    stop worrying.

    stop everything.

    drop. 

    drop to the ground.

    drop your possessions.

    drop everything.

    roll.

    roll anyway from the fire.

    roll away from your fears.
