Are you happy now
I'm just a girl just lil ole’ me
and I won't change for anyone
I don't want to be anything other than me
Go on now go walk out the door
You’ll be sorry when I’m gone
I am beautiful no matter what they say
Love's strange so real in the dark
take me for what i am
I'm no angel, but does that mean that I can't live my life
I don't wanna be told to grow up
There will be no white flag above my door
I will survive

awww thank you so much for such a kind-hearted comment!!

Great job with these lines! I'm not familiar with the contest, but it would appear that you're required to basically write a Cento.....a poem made up of the lines of other poets, or in this case, lyricists, words. You did a really good job with this! I've attempted a Cento before, and so I know how difficult it is, and time consuming, to go through the artist's work, and piece something together from nothing more than fragments! I'd say you stand more than a good chance in the contest!
