Dont Teach Me... Poem by Neeharika Sharma

Dont teach me
i m not a kid
i know what is right for me
and whats not

i m care free
but that doesnt mean
you will grab a chance
to dictate me

i m im-mature
but that doesnt mean
you can speak any thing
in front of me
and do away with it

i m a day dreamer
but that doesnt mean
i m not concentrating
on what you are doing
i know what ur intentions are

i talk about trivial things
but that doesnt mean
you will not take me seriously
i talk sense and
you have to listen

i am ordinary
but that doesnt mean
i dont have anything unique
i have a smile
that can light up
any room with my laughter

i m stupid
and i make mistakes
but that doesnt mean
i dont learn from them
i know they are my best teacher
and i take them very seriously

i am innocent
but that doesnt mean
you are allowed to do
anything which is
morally wrong to me

there are many sides
of me
i might not have done
good to you
but my intentions were
not bad at all

and so i just want
to say
i might have been wrong
but i m just like this
simple
yet complex
chicken-hearted
but strong
broken
but complete...
