Emma Thompson Poet Free verse

I Hate It

I HATE IT…
when people pretend to be
who they’re not

I HATE IT…
when i can’t tell people
how im feeling

I HATE IT… 
when im too shy
to show the true me
to the world
to my “friends”

I HATE IT…
when i can’t measure 
up to what other people 
think i should be

I HATE IT… 
when i think about
how im supposed to 
be the perfect good girl
that doesn’t do anything bad

I HATE IT… 
when people underestimate 
my feelings and my
strengths
when i try to be someone in mot
when im not the person i’d like to be
