I'm Not Your Rag-doll!

I'm Not Your Rag-doll!

A Poem by Tasha

I'm not your little lark,
or your cute little squirrel,
I'm your wife...
I'm not a rag-doll!

You can't dress me up,
and change me
to fit into your
made-up life style

I'm a mother,
a wife,
and a woman,

I'm not meant to be paraded
around at parties,
but to be there for you,
only you never give me the time of day,
because your so wrapped up in
keeping an image...

Yes I know I've made mistakes,
but I own up to them...

You're my husband,
you're suppose to be
my knight in shining armor
you're supposed to protect me
in my time of need,
but you're never around...

In my English class we read the stage-play "A Doll's House", it was really good. I hope you guys like it.

Wow. I just have to say. I just adore this poem. Reminds me of the 1930s and feminine activists. Great portrayal.

Another great write with some truth to it, sadly I see it and hear about it. That shouldn't be.

People really need to repect women. We definately aren't meant to be paraded around of displayed for show! People need to be married because of love, not because of want and trophies. I loved this poem! Well Done~
