Response to pride

I wrote a ppoem called "pride". this poem is based on a movie that me and my class seen in spanish class , its called "Entre Nos". this movie was about a women that was not wealthy and her husband left her wit two kids. this women struggled to get her and her kids through life but she did it and ended up successfull in the end. My poem relates to this movie in so many different ways. For example the lines
"You say im dumb?
Ill prove you wrong"
in the begining of the movie the man treated her like she was a nobody and will never be one and at the end of the movie she was somebody and she did it all on her own.
My poem is a pretty short poem but inside each and every line has a whole story to it. This film "Entre Nos" which means "Between Us" is based on a true story. That is one of the reasons why i wrote this poem. I felt strongly about this film so i decided "hey, if i write a poem it would show what i think the mother in this story is going through". I hope i showed that.

Pride

I stand strong

You ain’t puttin’ me down

You say I’m weak?

Ill move along

You say I’m dumb

Ill prove you wrong

You yell at me?

Ill yell right back

You talk bout’ me?

You just talk smack

You aint nothin’

You aint no man

Aint givin me your helpin hand

Im all alone

You just left

You stuck me with this F***ing mess!

But its all good

Im doin’ fine

I BEEN had you off my mind

I found a new

I know HE cares

Aint leavin me for no one else

Im full of pride

Its in me

You’re the one that’s empty

So how does it feel?

That constant sigh

You put me through it

So GOOD BYE

You are weak!

I stand strong

And I have moved far

         Far

                         FAR  ALONG

Opposites

I’m Fat

Short

Goofy

And UN popular

My socks don’t match

My pony tails to the side

Medal surrounds my mouth

I may have my flaws and I let them show

I’m simply me, and I ’ma let them know

I’m Slim

Tall

Sophisticated

Popular

My clothes are designer

My hair is long and silky

Whiteness glistens as I smile

I may have my flaws but I don’t let them show

That side of me, I refuse to let them know

Different

I dress different

Jordans, jeans, and a hoodie

My hair is not the same

Curly, thick, and wild

All these difference’s I could tell

I look at you and look at me

With your expensive Prada, Coach, and Gucci

When people look at you that is all they see

Nothing more

They then look at me

But all I got is personality

Insecurities

You see nothing but a low life

Dumb, trouble making girl

And think nothing more besides “she must be a whore”

I see a regular teenage girl

Who gets misunderstood

Makes mistakes

And try’s to do good

But she doesn’t care what people think anymore

Her insecurities are all out the door

Down She Goes

I walk out , and what do i see?
Something cold ,white and fluffy
I walk and walk to meet my friends
This is where the story begins
We say our heys, We say our hi's
Its not quite time for goodbyes
WE start our journey  , we move along
Then she starts to sing a song
Doopidy- dee doopidy- dow
All of a sudden we hear PLOP-OWWW!!
There she was , down on the floor
The singing had stopped , she hadn't sang anymore
We all laughed , when turned around Then I fell on the ground

Poem on work of art

Ashamed

Ashamed of who i once was now that this has became reality
Every Hug
Every Kiss
Every Touch
Dont know what i went into
I thought it was right
But who was i kiddin'
Night after night
Was him i was missin'
Mistakes i regret
The love i ain't get
Replaced by love with a fool
Should've been you
                   Should've been you
                                      Should've been you
