Pulling Me Down

So you just can’t stop talking rubbish, and trying to pull me down

Waiting for me to get annoyed, cry out tears or frown

You talk about my beauty, the ‘horrible’  way I look

Is that the only trick left in your stupid book?

Yes I have flaws, but I’m perfect in a way of my own

And boy you just can’t see it because it’s too precious to be shown

I’m so damn beautiful, you’ll get badly addicted

And then you’ll feel your brain all tied up and twisted

Now we don’t want that to happen to the other guys there too

Because when they’ll know my heart is taken they’ll go all sad and blue

As for you, my dear pal, I’m just happy that you’ve spoken to me

Because I know you’ll be the one telling the others ‘She’s out of your league’

Just wait till you see me in that little black dress tonight

Wait till you see me dancing on the stage in the limelight

Yes I have an attitude and I’m proud, but baby that’s just me

The way your mouth’s going to hang open: I just can’t wait to see

But there’s a secret darling, and it’s something you should know too

The guy whom my heart belongs to, yes the same one �"he’s you

Author's Note

This is from the point of view of a nerdy girl who gets humiliated by her crush everyday. I don't know why I even wrote this so bear with me if it sucks. But I think I'm quite happy with it.

Attitude and strength resonating in this poem. I think you did a very good job. There's a feeling of truth behind the words. Nice work, Rhea!

A wild poem. I like the thoughts in the poem. Love can twist us up and leave us in a crazy state. I like the flow of thoughts and the surprising ending. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
