No Poem by Monica Miles

Im not going to do it,
so just let me be.
im not going to do it,
cant you see.

just leave me alone
all by myself
i dont want to be like everyone else.
i dont want want to get sick,
i dont want to throw my life away,
i dont want to walk threw life unprepared every day;

so no i dont care what you have to say ill make it through my day my own way.
i dont want to look stupid, i dont want to feel dumb.
i dont want people peering down on me stunned.

its not because im scared not because im afraid
not cuz i dont like you guys please dont take it that way
and its not cuz i care what a hater goota say.

its because once i take that one little sip
may doors would close that slam damn thats it
my goals would be forgotten
my dreams would become untrue
and all because what i want to hang out with you

ive seen it first hand the families it destroys
the sad sorry girls and the fear stricken boys
ive seen it take lifes without even looking back
ive seen it to many times and now its just wack

she used to be cute cuddly and cool
and nows she in her grave because she decided to act a fool

she didnt think about her father her brother her mother
at that cold dark funeral crying like no other

she felt so high then crashed so low
never asking once just let me go
never saying once just leave me be
and for that reason that girl will never be me

i want to be free i want to be myself
i want to different unlike everone else
i want to be proud i want to stand tall

so my answer is no NO to it all
because ive climbed to high and im not ready to fall
i want to
