How's This For Self-Deprecation?

ah, being a bad influence

How’s This For Self-Deprecation?

Parents, quick quick!
Hide your kids
They’ll get sick
Don’t you know what’s coming?
Don’t you know it’s almost here?
It’s every parent’s biggest fear!

Close your window!
Lock your door!
She’s so toxic!
She’s a w***e!
She’ll hurt the ones you treasure
The damage she’ll do
Not one can measure
She’s a demon!
She’s a liar!
She’ll set your house on fire!

She is bad
But she can be worse
If she touches you
You will be cursed!

You’ll think she’s fine
You’ll think she’s nice
But you’re wrong
She’s just a vice
She says she’s better
She says she’s changed
Don’t believe it
Keep her in your shooting range!
She’s a bad seed
On your children
She will feed

So parents unite!
Put up the ultimate fight!
Protect! Protect!
For your loved ones
She will infect

Lock her up!
Lock her up!
Throw away the key!
Oh I’m sorry, didn’t I mention?
She is me.

stupid parents.... Don't they know how much you've helped other people? Espeically me. If they don't stop and take a look around at what they're doing, they're going to push you away. I know they don't want that. Oh, and one more thing: all parents love you...... except yours! (well they love you but... you know what i mean)! its the craziest thing. I used to hang around terrible people. My parents were estatic when I told them about you and marissa. They were happier I knew you then I was. (lol i hated you so much) but I love you know. You've changed me in more ways then you know. Sure you've screwed up but aren't people supposed to give you another chance? Kinda like, y'know, turn the other cheek and all that Jazz? it comes down to this: If your parents ever need proof of your goodness, tell them to call me. I'll say the truth: You've screwed up, but you can't change unless they let you. There are things about you that they'll never like but if they love you, they'll love you regardless.

You are my Kei! If you EVER need ANYTHING, always remember that I'm here!

If there was a contest for the devaluation of ones self you'd win hands down (I mean that in a good way) lol

Life is hard enough when you belong here....

It's only funny because you're the farthest thing from a bad influence I've ever met.

Wow! I can see that the nerves were on their last line here, and the anger and frustration poured out all over the place. This was brilliant. The emotions were great, and truly have to agree with everyone here as well. They make great points. Awesome job!! :)

well, it wasn't really about my parents, it's in general about how parents feel about me. idk felt like crap that day.

but thanks for the defense devin

I like this, simply for the fact that it seems like accepting who people think you are, yet poking fun at it. Like "Yeah, riiiight, I'm that bad a person." That's how I am when people tell me their parents don't like me. That's only what they can assume from barely knowing you, simply the external. They don't know the -inside- you, the -real- you... and that is usually the opposite of what most assume.

wow. that is one poem that really does bring you down. i like the phrasings and rhyme. but of course, have confidence in yourself. i don't think anyone hates you THAT badly...
