A Poem About Girls

Girls

Girls, they have to keep their guard up.

The fight for love has been a battle un-won for centuries.

They go into battle, no sword, no shield, just compassion.

Fighting against guys who are love assassins.

Fighting against guys who have… no compassion.

Pitiful, girls stubble down the hills of love into the trenches of depression,

Just to get right back up, walk up that same hill,

Trip over that same rock, and hit their head on the same spot.

Why do these girls learn, not?

Forced into thinking the best they can be is a dime,

But they know the value of a dollar is worth more,

It's just less shiny. Craving guys who crave their bodies.

They put you down because that’s where they’re looking,

It's sad that you accept their criticism because they want the title of taken?

They say it's to hard to find someone else,

But its not to hard to see that you need someone else,

To see that you want someone else.

The problem is that in order to do that you have to be by yourself,

And you don’t want to do that so you stay with him.

Everyday you’re with him he tells you,

You don’t need no one else,

You don’t want no one else

But deep down inside there is a voice screaming,

And its saying … HELP!

You just want to be loved.

The hugs, the kisses,

The “love”, He listens

But watch out because he’s on a mission

Girls….

This was a poem I made a while back. It was about a friend I have who had to deal with a boyfriend that didn’t treat her right. She stayed with this guy who used to beat her, and now they have a baby together. Well, she has a baby. As for the father, that guy is nowhere to be found. To all the girls who read this and are in similar situations watch out because he could be on a mission. You have control over your body. Your body is your castle, protect it.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
