Boy, someday soon I hope you find that girl
That you swear is the only in the world.
She can flirt and smile,
Getting dressed takes a while,
And rain makes her "straight" hair, curled.

Boy, maybe you'll be relieved to know
That she loves hot weather and hates the snow.
She has no passion
But she's always in fashion
And says poetry is "totally emo."

Boy, I hope you're happy when all she wants to do
Is talk about how she's not good enough for you.
Although, in my mind -
Though it may not be kind -
I know this is absolutely true.

Boy, you see, I cannot flirt,
A little bit of rain never hurt,
I hate the heat,
Poetry is my heartbeat,
And quite frankly, that girl will treat you like dirt.

Boy, I believe you and I could be
More than just an epiphany.
But alas, I'm too shy,
So I guess I'll stand by
While "you and I" become "you and she".

I thought I'd make a poem poking fun at what a girl is "supposed" to be. Please don't be offended, there was no harm intended.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

Yes they are! I'd love if you'd check some of my stuff out!

Thank you so much!  I was getting kind of tired of the girl stereotype and decided to just make fun of it all (plus limericks are always fun). :)

Even though I am a girl, I absolutely love this! I can just picture some girls I know that this fits perfectly! Nice work, it flows great!
