Omg danielle. I loved it. perfect for todays childeren. *claps*

Great repitition, and I love the wording!

Wow, what an excellent read.
There's meaning practically shoved into every word, and it's quite easy to relate to.
Word choice and flow are perfect to... not much to improve on.
5/5.

Everybody just wants to be accepted and fit in with others, and most will do whatever it takes to be"cool". It's pounded into our head from TV and magazines that you have to be pretty and dress like everybody else to fit in, but how does that make us unique?? Great job 5/5

Interesting, it has a feeling of sarcasm and irony as well. Keep it up

Oh i wrote a poem similar to this. but bout wat a mans supposed to be like. but this was really really strong and the last line was my favourite. ended the poem well.

5/5 David

This poem has SO much emotion and truth to it. Especially this line:

Here child, put on this mask
They'll accept you now
Make yourself what they want you to be
No, I promise, they'll like you now
You'll be "popular"
You'll be "great"
They'll love you now child
They won't like the real you
So here child, fit into this mold

That's amazing. When I first saw it I thought it would be too long, but I read it and I wish there had been more! You are an amazing writer! I love this poem.

5/5!

Oh man, Danielle, you have outdone yourself! What an amazing piece!! Sorry it's taken me so long to read this! I love your repetition (And I usually don't). It speaks so strongly...I love this so much. I really don't have anything to write bad about this. AMAZING job!

Bte, I don't ask this often but I want you to read this poem. Leaping for the Stars. It's mine and I JUST wrote it. It coincides with this poem's message. Please? Thanks!!

Again, AMAZING JOB!

Danielle,

Sorry about the 'Dani', I have a neice and the daughter of a friend named Danielle, and they both go by Dani.

Now, about this poem, It is well written. The imagery and the discriptive words you used was a plus. Good message.

The problem in our society is that it is so hard to be an idividual when we live in a plastic stereotyping world. Especially our youth. Everyone wants to be accepted, and lack the courage to say just accept me as I am, your opinion means nothing to me. The reason why it is so hard for kids these days is because they are still trying to find out just who they are. You've brought up some very important points.

Always,
Jeannie

That was very nicely written, it was long but nicely done. I thought it flowed very nicely and made a lot of sense. You also got some very nice points in it. I loved it.

Don't listen to your heart
Listen to the girls
The girls who "know"
The cliques
The "populars"
The backstabbing
The rumors

^^ soo true.... thats what people want you to be like, and you should always break out of the mold... everyone is trying to be alike... this reminded me of a quote "you were born an original, don't die a copy"... those words are really powerful, like this poem... great job.. 5/5 from me

Wow I loved this poem, it is so true, well what the people do, not that the person should listen to them....loved it!!! :D

Holy Shit
wow that is a wonderful poem here hun
It so truee i love itt
and your a really good writer by the way:P

Thats awesome I love that one!! Its so true.

I loved this poem. it had a good flow to it but its message was excelent. it really spoke to me. i too have spend many a night wondering just who i am behind all my masks. iguess its just so sad how we are so afraid of being ourselves that we will live our whole lives trying to be what we are not. and then we wonder why we feel so empty and depressed. it would actually be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

P.s i think you could relate to my one poem Your soul screams why. it follows the same general theme as this one. check it out if you like

Beautiful...5/5. It's so true. I love it.
