Below me are the put-downs
others made of me in stone.
Only I can break them,
and only I alone.

For even though they're marked in stone,
they're not permanent. They don't matter.
Only I know my true feelings,
and they can make rocks shatter.

Then I took my true feelings,
and etched them in the sky,
Now I always know what I am,
and the reason why.

Yeah, but I can request to delete...

but I can see your point, because Teenink is where ALL the most popular girls in school go on the web (playfully sarcastic)

Thank you! I'm surprised it got in the magazine, because no one really looked at it
