Suffocated being a good girl!

By bex103 •

Im the good girl I never do anything wrong My grades are of average and beyond I havent been pissed I havent smoked weed I havent had sex I havent badly mixed People see me as daddys girl People see me as a geek People see me as a misfit People see me as a freak My parents never worry Not like they do about my brother Thier always satisfied with me But im not satisfied with them Why can't they see? That i hate this Im not alright Not inside I hide behind a wall so questions wont be raised Im scared to talk to them To disappoint them im screaming inside crying out for some attention for something other than praise other than ignorance i try and rebel try to cut the strings loose but they know its an act That im being over dramatic its getting too much i need to break free for good so now im gonna act real outta place stay out all night be seen making out with bad boys, daddy dont like and see what their reaction is then Im not a little girl With pigtails and clarks sandles Im 15 years old Time to lose the invislbe cord I'll always be your first born But i got to experience life And have you worry about me the way you do about your son.

I like this poem. It shows clear frustration. I've been there before so i know exactly how you feel. You don't have to go overboard with being out of character to make your parents see the point. Just do something that you want to do that you don't normally do and you'll find that the transition can be accepted by your parents....with some getting used to.

I love your poem and yea it can be hard being seen as perfect it seems to me that my parents ignore me b/c they think they have nothing to worry about but dont do anything rash u'll regret it trust me. i wish i knew before.
