The poem showing my permanently rebel nature

Somehow, since my teenage years I have been a rebel. I loved opposing to how most of the people around me thought. 

I was brave enough to share the opinions which were mine but were not popular.

I have always felt being a creep. Someone who does not and cannot fit in. Someone who is different (and not necessarily in a better way). Someone who did not care much about what people thought of me.

Ages ago, back when I had blue highlights in my hair I wrote this poem. Still agree with it )

Here it is:

I don’t need permission to make my own decisions 

I have right to be bold even if I don’t wear gold 

If I dress like a vandal it doesn’t mean 

I can’t wear sandals 

And if I really like Prodigy

it doesn’t mean that I’m crazy 

I don’t really care about what people say

they think I need roots & ties

 But I think otherwise 

If I scream loud when I’m mad

it doesn’t mean that I’m bad 

and if I wanna become independent and rich 

it doesn’t mean that I’m a bitch! 

When I was writing stuff similar to this, Radiohead's Creep was one of my favourite songs. I adored the sounds and I totally fell every single word in it.... and of course I screamed parallel on the top of my lungs.

Really Nice......i Upvoted you!!!

What the hell am I doing here...I don't belong here... Good post.

and for the re-steem too!

Sure thing :)

Very nice! Also very brave of you to share this now and explain the backstory behind it. I totally relate to being this rebellious teen and have written many poems myself around that time. One of them is this one here; https://steemit.com/poet/@lukakorba/diary-entry-18-02-16 - it shows my rebellious side if you read between the lines, because I didn't really express that side of me that clearly (I wanted people to get confused by my doings and art) Anyway, thank you for sharing!

oh people getting confused is happening so often. As soon as my novels became slightly popular many people kept asking me how much of it was autobiographical and how much was fiction... and I think the beauty of it is that they will never know )

Creep by Radiohead made me cry when I was at my lowest (the first time) because I too am a creep

Brava Ani. Plus that song....A classic.

thanks Nazim!

I was also a little rebel inside. I always wanted to prove people wrong. It's always people's comments that I had been trying to disprove, unfortunately, good or bad.
