My whole life
I have been told;
"Stand up.
Sit down.
Eat your greens.
Don't wear that.
Go here.
Wear this make up.
Dye your hair this color.
Do this, do that."
Blah
Blah,
Blah.
The whole ffucking shebang
and I am sick of it.
People wonder
why our kids are depressed
and full of so much
Anxiety \ anger \ rebellion?
Did you ever think
of how
much expectation
You hold over us
The pressures you put
in place for us?
And Dear God
if one of us should mess up.
So your solution
is to slam more shit
down our throats
and give us a slap
on the wrist
to make us be quiet.
I, for one
am done being quiet.
I will be loud.
I will be out there.
I will do what I want and need.
Fuck you,
Fuck you,
Fuck you.
