Not Your Average Girl

Contributed by pixie on Friday, 11th February 2005 @ 02:13:57 PM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles



I am not your average girl,
I dont walk about without a care in the world,
I am not all sugar & spice,
I am not made from all things nice.

I am made from bugs & snails,
In my heart I carry a hundred nails,
I throw them out when I feel threatened,
As by the darkness I am deafened.

I dont pretend to like people who I hate,
I dont force smiles as I dont always feel great,
I live in a world where hurt & pain reside,
My feelings are open I dont try to hide.

Love is something I have but yet destroy,
I before have treated Marks heart like a toy,
Forgetting about his needs harping on about mine,
I have hurt his heart that much it has lost its shine.

I do not follow others I go it alone,
I know I am the reaper of the seeds I have sown,
I know about everything that I can possibly be,
Most of the time I am my own worst enemy.

mY DEAR Pixie you are far from just a avergae girl..Your talent told me that long ago..Never feel you have nothing to offer..Misery comes in seasons..But it also ends as well..As all seasons do..

Hey pixie. This was a good emotional right. (Listen, I probably shouldn't say this, but holding it all in doesn't help either.) "In my heart I carry a hundred nails,
I throw them out when I feel threatened," sure is a line I can identify with. Hugs!

I think we may all be our own worst enemies but I especially like because I can relate so well to this line: I do not follow others I go it alone

Really like the honesty in this poem. Niceley done.
