Pulling Me Down

So you just can’t stop talking rubbish, and trying to pull me down

Waiting for me to get annoyed, cry out tears or frown

You talk about my beauty, the ‘horrible’  way I look

Is that the only trick left in your stupid book?

Yes I have flaws, but I’m perfect in a way of my own

And boy you just can’t see it because it’s too precious to be shown

I’m so damn beautiful, you’ll get badly addicted

And then you’ll feel your brain all tied up and twisted

Now we don’t want that to happen to the other guys there too

Because when they’ll know my heart is taken they’ll go all sad and blue

As for you, my dear pal, I’m just happy that you’ve spoken to me

Because I know you’ll be the one telling the others ‘She’s out of your league’

Just wait till you see me in that little black dress tonight

Wait till you see me dancing on the stage in the limelight

Yes I have an attitude and I’m proud, but baby that’s just me

The way your mouth’s going to hang open: I just can’t wait to see

But there’s a secret darling, and it’s something you should know too

The guy whom my heart belongs to, yes the same one �"he’s you

Author's Note

This is from the point of view of a nerdy girl who gets humiliated by her crush everyday. I don't know why I even wrote this so bear with me if it sucks. But I think I'm quite happy with it.

I love the attitude of the girl. It is very well written. Since you say its a nerdy girl, it is good to know that she finally stands up against bullying. I love the last few lines. The confidence and attitude of the girl is just....wow!

You should be happy with this one - it's really well written! I love the attitude that emerges here - starting with the acknowledgement of the "bully", but moving on to the realization of one's beauty - strength and pride grows in this poem. Well done!
