Array ( [sid] => 33111 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => U were suppose to be [time] => 2004-01-29 14:43:07 [hometext] => [bodytext] => U Were supposed to be

Nov 2, 03

U were supposed to understand
U were supposed to be there
U were supposed to believe in me
U were supposed to support me
U were supposed to be here for me

As a little girl u were supposed to tell me I'm

smart
beautiful
wonderful

U were supposed to respect me
U were supposed to treat me like a young woman
U were supposed to teach me how to love myself, to believe In myself

Now 20 years later I look in the mirror I see a worthless, fat, ugly, girl that believes she is beneath everybody

Thanks a lot for your fine work

but instead u call me a
fat
b****
stupid, making songs about my learning disability

U were supposed to love me
U were supposed to want me
U were not supposed to leave me

I said I want to be a doctor
U were supposed to say good for u not u are too slow in head to be one

I said I want to be a lawyer
U were supposed to say u can do anything u set your mind to

U say u hate the way I speak don't like my southern accent well who do u think I get it from

U say I'm so stupid that I let people lead me to hell
The poeple see I'm with yall so they know I'm already in hell

U were supposed to be there for me
U were supposed to love me
U were supposed to believe In me
U were supposed to guide me
U were supposed to teach me
U were supposed to be my parents
U were supposed to be my dad
U were supposed to be my mom [comments] => 2 [counter] => 301 [topic] => 6 [informant] => remi [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )

Southern accents aren't bad. I think most of this was powerful. I'd like you as opposed to U but that is poets choice. I just translate it to you in my head though anyways.
'U say I'm so stupid that I let people lead me to hell
The poeple see I'm with yall so they know I'm already in hell'
That line and the supposed lines were rather good. I think putting lines in between would have been good too. I think it was well done though.
Like here:
'I said I want to be a lawyer
U were supposed to say u can do anything u set your mind '
