i am an angry feminist because i have been too far ignored, too far silenced and yet not given a chance to voice my mind.
just a feminist.

What is life about?
pushing and pulling through doors all day long
but yet nothing comes out of them
struggling through the settings of the society
sometimes make it through a day
but not until another day comes in surprise
is it alone or lonely i don't understand
how is it that i can write whole page of a fiction story
but not a school due report paper?

in this world we are given all kind of different reasons to live up to
we are taught many different things, facts, lesson to the point where we don't know which, or what to learn and believe
we are judged at an early age
that we learn and begin to judge too soon too early
when no one worries about us
we start to worry too much about ourselves instead of others
after out repetitive mistakes and failures
we start to question our knowledge, experiences, learning and wisdom
when life starts to become too difficult to live each day after another
we start to learn that life is a big one puzzle that can't be solved in aday
every day becomes a new day to learn and
we start notice our daily life lessons that go by everyday
some times our lessons repeat themselves over and over
until we catch a glimpse of them.

we can sometimes be traumatized by something we don't know or understand. life.

i did not finish my story yesterday
i tried to continue it today
but something suddenly came along
am afraid i might never have an ending
a story without an ending
is like a story that was never started
am the only one who knows how the story goes
i have never told it to anyone
there for there will be no one to tell it but me
it's a story i so want everyone to know
a story like never been told before.

don't fall in-love with an ambitious girl
because she will always run after her ambitions instead of you
don't fall in-love with a feminist girl
because she will always win at anything against you
don't fall in-love with an independent girl
because you will never get to control her in anything
don't fall in-love with a smart girl
because she will always outsmart you a step ahead
don't fall in-love with a writer girl
because she will write out all your flaws if you ever break her heart
don't fall in-love with a singer girl
because her last song will be about how a bad *** you are
fall in-love with a poet girl
because she will rhyme out your greatness
before you even give up your heart to her.

I wrote a poem for my English class and my teacher said he didn't like it.

I wasn't mad because I got a bad grade, I was mad because what if I wasn't strong enough to look past his opinion and keep writing? What if that one negative comment made me quit altogether and never share a single word again?

What if he ruined my future because he couldn't look past his idea of what a poem should be?

A poem does not have to rhyme or end with closure or even make sense to everyone who reads it.

A poem simply has to reach part of someone's soul who had no idea that these were the words they had been waiting to hear and these were the words that were meant to save them.

This is what a poem is, not a grade from a teacher or a rhyme in a book. A poem is a method of coping and a way to understand the world with ease.

I wrote a poem for my English class and my teacher said he didn't like it. But I am stronger than he thinks, and I will continue to write poems that he does not like and I will continue to love them in spite of his opinion.
