Death to caring what others think 

No more stressing aout your makeup or style

You can dance around the room or sing a single song

Without being looked at

At least, thats what your supposed to be able to do

 

In reality there are sterotypes and social ranks 

There are "perfect" people and not perfect people

Peope need to have the next best thing to be "cool"

 

The phones we have, the lcothes we wear

The size we are, how our body looks

We need to have the best, be the best

We want to feel accepted and normal 

 

We want to have good grades 

We need to have talents and be in clubs 

Don't listen to that

Don't listen to them

We don't have to be perfect 

Death to caring what others think 


The author's comments:

This poem was inspired by the sterotypes that go on in schools and public schools.  I really think that if a lot of people stopped caring what others thought about them and their styles namy people would be happier and less stressed.  That's what I hope people get from this poem that I wrote.  I hope they understand that it's ok to be different.
