Growing up with boys.

Growing up with boys.

A Poem by Arianna

i always liked them better

boys i mean

not just in the romantic sense

no, theyve always just been better

theyve always been more fun

more intresting

more honest

more, blunt

and ive always done better with blunt

to the point

no silly games

unless theyre like tag

ive always liked tag

something my girl friends as i got older

started to avoid

its too  muddy

or ill break a nail

so, i played with the boys

not that i minded

theyve always been my frist pick

but people always frowned

when i didnt have at least one girl friend

ive always liked them better

even in my family

i always had a favrote uncle

not a favrote aunt

i wanted a little brother

who i still kindly dressed like a princess

i played tackle football with my cousins

long after the other girls stopped

ive always been one of the guys

i never really got being a girl

not until junior high school

later even

people didnt aprove

of my baggy sweatshirts

my un made up face

and my unstraightend hair

i didnt understand

the boys had always liked me till then

and now

they liked the girls that just a year before

we had laughed at togother

i still like them better

boys i mean

theyre more truthful

more intresting

they tend not to play silly games as much

unless you mean tag

they still like to play tag
