"It's impossible." said pride. "It's risky." said experience. "It's pointless." said reason. "Give it a try." whispered the heart.


Prepare to get real,
Guys are stupid,
Girls are emotional,
I don’t understand,
Where this bigotry sprang from,
We are all unique souls,
Different in so many ways,
But we put these labels and ideas,
And group people together,
Guys are tired of being called dumb and unkind,
And tired of having to hide our emotions,
Or risk being called Gay,
Girls shouldn’t have to half kill themselves to look pretty,
Their angels just the way they are,
Girls should be able to live out their fantasies of true love,
The Society has twisted and perverted our inner selves,
It tries to pour us into little pre-made molds,
Well I say NO!!
I break free,
I will cry when I want,
I will sing along to any song,
Dress how I feel,
And express my soul,
Come join me,
Don’t let society’s taboos get you down,
Don’t be imprisoned by the POWERS THAT BE!
Let your heart be free.

"Balance is key to living a good life. Too much 'reality' will make you angry, too much dreaming will make you indifferent. You need dreams to live better and life to accomplish dreams =]" - Ms.Nada (my spanish teacher)

I loved the message and it was very well written.

GREAT JOB! Just a suggestion: change "The Society" to "This Society". It makes more sense and flows better! Love this! 5/5 keep it up!

...one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love....I love...I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on. -Mr. Darcy

I love your poem!  I thought the message of it is beautiful and I agree one hundred percent. :)
