the world.. oh god no.
expecting an arm, leg, organ.. MY HAIR
but yet, nothing in return
what am i supposed to say for myself
when it's people like you
you expect my hair to be long & my curls to be shown
you expect my ass to be fat but no surgery to be done
you expect me not to speak up when you butcher my name
you expect my English to be 'ratchet' and my dad to be gone
you expect me to drop out & become pregnant at young age
you expect me to settle for the makeup that doesn't come in my color
although i can't seem to think
your expectations are false
you see..
i expect my hair the way i like it. braids, weave, natural, or bald.
i expect my shape to be the way i like it
i expect you to know you mispronounced my name & FIX IT!
i expect my English to be quite intriguing & to do nothing but get better.
i expect myself to finish school, pursue my dreams and have children when im ready ( even if that's 16 )
i expect for simple minded makeup brands to broaden their horizons
and there is so much more
so no, don't expect me to fulfill your thoughts bout me
my life, my decisions
i will live up to my expectations & not yours.
