I have been a girl since the day I was born
I am a jewish girl at that
I am also Puerto Rican
Why can't I strong
Why can't I openly express my beliefs
Why can't I dance without it being ******
Why can't I yell when you are being unfair
Today on the bus these boys were talking
talking about girls they disrespect
or want to sleep with
or don't even want to touch
They way they said the things they said
made me mad
"If a girl has *** she's a *****- if she doesn't she's a *****"
why can't I just be happy
A wise woman told me
women are not considered better than men because we are too busy putting eachother down
She's right
I see it all around
I want to be friends
I want to hear your opinions and beliefs
I don't want to judge you
I don't want to disrespect you
or mess with your head
Why can't you try
just try
to do the same.
Please be nice.
Please think.
Please consider not being you
for just one minute.
Please
Please
Try.
