"Dear World...I'm Sorry"
  by terrenababii
  - This Poem is a response to the poem Dear World...I'm Sorry by Rissa14


Sorry Mom,
Sorry Dad,
Sorry Sister,
Sorry Friend,
Sorry World,
Sorry that I'm not perfect
That I can't always live up to your standards
Can't live it up to your expectations
I never meant to be a popular outcast
Or a notorious rebel
I just wanted to be me, World
And I thought you'd take me in
Thought you'd accept me
But no, no one warned me about you
No one told me that you was so mean, so cruel
They didn't tell me
They didn't tell me about
stereotypes
and racism
and hate
and sexuality
and politics
and liars
and sex-hungry bastards
and police brutality
and outspoken poets
and seperating what's real from what isnt
And sorry, World
Sorry that I'm real
Sorry I'm not the next Paris Hilton
If I would've known I woulda been a big disappointment to you
I would've asked to be
White, skinny, and rich
I would be perfect, just for you
And I'm sorry Mom,
sorry that I'm growing up
Sorry that I'm getting more curious
I never meant to hurt you Mommy,
I wanted to stay your precious little angel
Just as much as you wanted me to
Dad, I'm sorry
Sorry that I'm not in fourth grade anymore
Sorry that x-intercepts are harder than ABC's
That when you see my report card, and its not straight A's
All you can do is shake your head
Look at me with cold eyes
And tell me I will be nothing in life
Sorry Sister,
Never did I intend to hurt you
I didn't wanna be that bad sister
That your pen ran wild about...hate poems
I didn't wanna be the butt of your conversations
with friends
No, I promise it wasn't my plan
I always wanted to be your best friend,
the sister you looked up to,
Really I did
But sorry, sorry I couldn't do that
Sorry I messed up the bond we could've had
And Friend, I'm sorry
I never wanted to be so true to you
Never wanted you to take advantage of me
Sorry I wouldn't let you walk all over me
'Cause if I would've known we'd end up with nothing
I would've been your doormat
I wouldn't have cried all those tears for you
Sorry Baby, Boo, Sexy, Papi, Baby Daddy, Boyfriend,
If I didn't think you truly loved me, If I wouldn't have falled for your tricks
I would've dropped down on my knees in a minute,
I would've sucked your little ass dick
Sorry that I DID mind when you
wanted to be with every girl
accept the girl who was realest, who's been there for you
Sorry I wasn't pretty enough, or sexual enough,
Sorry...
Sorry World,
that I don't fit into your mold
Or your American Dream
That I'm not the little girl
Who'll grow up and set the standard for
other little fucking girls
Who aren't perfect like me...
Sorry to you,
'Cause you have it so bad
Sorry Mothafuking World,
it MUST be hard to be you...

Terrena, I would enjoy reading your poetry much more if you did not use the type of language you used in this one. You can express yourself without such ugly words. I know you can because I raised you. Your Mother.
