If I was a boy

If was a boy 

Would you question me

Would you call me intense

If I had an opinion 

If I was a boy

How would you look at me 

Would you know that I worked hard

That I didn’t get help

That I deserved this

If I was a boy 

Would I be mocked

For questioning you

And telling you to stop being rude

Would I have to have a comeback 

Prepared and ready 

Knowing that you might attack at any minute 

If I was a boy 

Could I dream bigger 

And have more role models 

Would people support me more

Tell me I deserved this

If I was a boy 

I wouldn’t have been a girl

I wouldn’t have been a women

I wouldn’t have been

Strong

Fierce

Independent 

Amazing 

Brave

Thank god I'm a girl

  • Do It For Her

    If you can't do it for yourself

    Then do it for her

    Do it for the girl

    With big ideas

    And even bigger dreams

    The girl who would try to count the stars

    But then sigh and say there was a lot

  • ABC Heart poem

    I'm not sure how I feel about this poem, I don't think it's really good but I really wanted to participate in this challenge. :)

     

    All times my heart has

    Broken into pieces
