Get good grades
Don't break the rules
Act like a proper lady
Don't let anyone see you cry
All things
I was told
would eventually
get me somewhere
I don't deny
that being safe
makes me
comfortable
but I wish
I could take
initiative
to be new
and do something
the world
has never seen
after all,
we are taught
so young to do
things now so we
don't feel the guilt
until later
