You can call me a boy

I like cosmetics but I don't want them to cover my whole face,

So what if I wore a jumper to school one day!,

It was for a project I had in English that day,

I didn't wear my hair up so sorry I ruined your day,

With girls I have so many problems but when I'm with the boys the problems don't remain,

You can call me a boy,

I don't care what you say,

So many people say guys mature faster but I disagree,

You go along with everything you're little clique says,

But I have the courage to go my own route and live life my own because I just don't care about what girls like you say,

You can stare at me all you want and tell I'm weird,

But the boys don't care so why should I fear?,

Go ahead don't pick on your team in gym,

I'll play with the boys and see if I can win,

I have some girl friends but only a few,

Quality's what matters to me not quantity unlike you,

Some times I catch the teachers in the cafeteria staring my way because some days I only sit with boys,

I'm a hot young chick who's going to live her life because I know who I am and I know that boys can see me better for who I am inside,

They say girls mature faster but I don't believe,

You can call me a boy,

You don't see even see me!,

I wrote this poem about why I have so many guy friends and why I believe guys mature faster.
