I'm Not That Kind of Girl

by LadyPearl   Jun 13, 2006


Ribbons and laces and pink satin too
Shoes in jewels of all color hues
Dances in dim light with a boy or two
In truth, I am nothing at all like you

Dreamy eyes and seductive lips
Late night parties of swinging hips
No, I'm not that easily tempted to show
My affection to someone I don't know

I'm not that kind of girl at all
My goals, unlike yours, are set far
I work to achieve my dreams at all cost
I am not ready for my heart to be lost

You may be flirty in your little pink dress
But I know inside your life will be a mess
You don't know why I do what I do
You don't know why I'm cold to someone new

I may be girl, liking "stuff" once in a while
But I don't need a man, or shoes to make me smile
I'm not a wannabe, neither looking for boys
That just isn't my way of finding my joys

I'm not that kind of girl at all
It is to the future that I call
You may whisper, they may lure
But in the end, I'm not that girl

    I loved the message of your poem, it's about someone who's original and being original is hard these days. I also liked the way it's written, it rhymes and uses beautiful words. I could really imagine the "Ribbons and laces and pink satin too".

    Good job! 5/5

    Keep writing
