 'Defending an Arabian
Written at 15 years old

You began the fight
After the fued i forgot completely
If your parents punished you
It was nothing to do with me if i told them
I never wanted to lose you, but i knew you wasn't worth keeping as a friend, but i really wished it would have worked

So you hang with my friends
Like i'd even care
You so i didn't give a monkey's business
So the next time you pulled several horrible looks
Thinking i still would be bothered
But i've met too many bullies to fall for this trash
Stronger than you'd imagine or i'd be dead with the amount i had in life
But i never wanted to become my own worst enemy

This time you had to follow me
You had to lay a finger
And so pulled me off the bus
But i let my things go and defended myself
You couldn't take my strength
So you pull of the scarf

The pin sting didn't bother me until you gave in
But what you said was the worst part

I am white you should defend me not this ugly (Beep Beep) You are white defend me

But these people were being fair
They knew it was you who started on me for nothing
So they were good to ask me if i was ok
What is wrong if they want to defend an Arabian girl
Who'd been abused
How could you pull off my head covering
Its a part of me not just religiously

I defend white people if they are being harrassed and why is it not ok they defend me
It is ok if they do
Why shouldn't they
I don't see a crime against defending darker coloured peope
DO YOU


Thanks for the bruised hand, but i won't let that or anything else you did bring me down
Not even the ridiculous fact you fell out for me
