Small

by Amanda   Apr 18, 2005


I really hate being so small, i can truly say i do,
I say to my friends i wanna be taller just like you,
They always seem to laugh and say i should be glad,
When people ask how old i am it just makes me mad,

they laugh and don't believe me, i just seem to cry,
my family treat me like a baby and now i do know why,
I am a full grown woman who's wanting to be set free,
I want to be like my friends, want them to notice me,

They ignore me in class discussions not even meaning to,
talking over the top of me no matter what i try to do,
I try so hard to fit in at college but cannot find a way,
cannot wait until we leave and looking forward to that day,

I want to look like a woman and not a child to everyone,
want to just be taller, my baby looking days will be gone,
don't want to hear people saying isn't she cute and sweet,
I want to feel like everyone else and be normal in my street!

Sorry a bit rubbish but i had to get the sad feelings out
cos my height makes me depressed because people point it out
like i don't know I'm small and i feel so alone and feel like
nobody will want to be my friend or girlfriend because I'm small.
Please comment, i would really appreciate it. Thanks :)

    Amanda, you don't have to justify why you write what you write, you do it because you feel like that at that precise second. So I'd like you to pop on over to the mirror and take a good look at yourself and say 'I am proud of writing my poetry. I am proud of me'. If you have to say it everyday and trust me pretty soon you'll just think it as you walk past without even knowing it. And you should honey because your work comes from the heart xx
