100% Right

I wrote this about my last boyfriend when my friend was making fun of him. I hope you like it! The hidden message is: Mind your own business <3

100% Right

If you don't have anything,
Nice to say,
Just keep it to yourself,
Cuz your opinions,
Don't matter to anyone else,
Stop telling me he's ugly,
Cuz I don't care what you think,
But I know in my heart,
He's absolutely beautiful

Well I don't care what you think,
Cuz he's not with you,
He's with me,
To you he might be ugly,
To me he's the definition of beauty,
To you he might be boring,
But when he's with me,
He's full of life,
Well I know he might not be perfect,
But for me he's 100% right

You make a point,
To say he's ugly,
Every time I say his name,
But don't you know that,
I'm blocking out your words,
Cuz in my mind, all I hear,
Is him whispering in my ear,
Those three words you'll never hear

Well I don't care what you think,
Cuz he's not with you,
He's with me,
To you he might be ugly,
To me he's the definition of beauty,
To you he might be boring,
But when he's with me,
He's full of life,
Well I know he might not be perfect,
But for me he's 100% right

Tell me what's wrong with you,
That would make you stoop so low,
Cuz don't you think I already know,
That there's been other girls in his life,
So don't tell me all about it,
Don't send me those pictures,
Cuz now they're gone,
And they're never coming back

Well I don't care what you think,
Cuz he's not with you,
He's with me,
To you he might be ugly,
To me he's the definition of beauty,
To you he might be boring,
But when he's with me,
He's full of life,
Well I know he might not be perfect,
But for me he's 100% right,
He's 100% right <3

Author's Note

So when I first started dating this guy Doug my one friend Daniela decided to look him up on Facebook. He was Costa Rican and she's really racist so every time I would talk about him she always had to make fun of him in one way or another. I was able to put up with it for a while but eventually she just drew the line. One day I got a picture sent me from her of Doug and his old girlfriend Ashlei kissing that was on Facebook. I got really pissed off because I just knew she was just trying to make me upset. I got into a text fight with her and immediately after I just knew I had to start writing this song. So I hope you like it! Feel free to comment and review!

Very good poem/story. There are always friends who envy what's happening in your life. This poem is a clear picture of how someone can block out those hurtful words their friends could say. Good thing you had the courage to stand up for Doug, because no book should be judged until it's read. This poem could inspire other people to speak up to their friends of how they feel. Nice write.

Great poem Krista. A perfect motto everyone now a days should follow: "Mind Your Own Business." Very well said and written as well. Great job. :)

That's really dramatic! An interesting read, great title and a good message! I would say you could maybe add more verses, diversify your structure like writing 'our text fight ended with my raging fears that you would sour what we had, ruining our relationship, I cared for him and you stuck your nose in...where it didn't belong!' Or something like that! Sometimes I like a bit of Spanish in men ;) Their accents are amazing! Well I guess she's not a good friend and hopefully in future you two can settle your differences in person. Be careful - one day she may use those texts against you (it's more likely that if she was racist in them that she could get into trouble, but it's a precaution).

Thanks for the advice! And yeah she stopped being rude after a while so it's alright now!

You're welcome, that's good!

[Krista Weiss]

Your 100% right! If you dont like it keep it to your self. If you know your friend likes some on its not nice to keep making fun of that person. Besides I am sure she would not like it if you did that to her. not that you would stoop to that level but still. Dont mind her! If you like him then thats all that matters. If she feels the need to keep doing that then she is not much of a friend. She needs to be put in her place or she needs to find a different friend because you dont need to be treated like that neither does he! Great write by the way!

Thanks!! :)
