So Naive

if you thought

that i was going to allow you

to walk all over me

with your words

then you are more wrong

then you have ever imagined

i have a large voice

and if means breaking a few hearts

and making you get angry

then i will do it

you don’t seem to enjoy my sarcastic personality

good, because it doesn’t enjoy you either

i speak from the heart

and i will admit when i’m wrong

i never challenge anything

if i believe i cannot win

you think i have a small minded voice

but sir, that’s where you are wrong

give me knowledge,

and i promise that i will spit

stanzas at you left and right

i’m not here to please you,

i don’t care about your whims and needs

if you don’t want to do something for me

don’t do it, i’m not asking for the world

and i don’t expect you to give it to me

you say i’m rude,

that i don’t respect you.

but,

you cut me off before words can even exit my mouth

i’m not dumb,

and i’m sure as hell not naive

but you seem to degraded me

with telling me that i’m just a young girl, who doesn’t know

i’ve stopped finding comfort,

in the arms of others

and i’ve started keeping myself warm on cold nights

so the day i need you,

is the day i’ve lost my warmth

don’t think i can’t make it on my own

because that will just make me wanna prove you wrong

even more than i ever have.

i won’t shut my mouth to give you pleasure

i won’t zip my lips,

because you can’t bare to hear the freedom

that seems to soars past my front teeth

like baby birds that have just learned to fly

my voice is me,

and the day you take that away

is the day i quit
