I am the girl,
that nobody “wants”.
The guys, they cringe,
and the girls, they taunt.

I am the girl,
that knows secrets,
more than you will ever know.
The girl that guards them,
with her life, and her heart.

I am the girl,
who wears the band tees,
with the skinny jeans.
The one who,
no matter how bad a day is,
always wears a smile on my face,
even if it’s fake.

I am known as the girl,
who everyone abandons.
The one who wants to hang out,
only to be turned away.

I am the one,
who is creative.
The one who can
create a legendary story
using the simplest of words.

I am the girl,
who wishes she had,
someone to talk to,
not someone who
stabs me in the back.

I’m the girl,
who wakes up in the morning,
criticizing her appearance,
claiming that I will never be
good enough for anyone in this world.
The one who wears the band tees
and skinny jeans.
The one with her hair always up,
but hardly down.

I am the girl,
who if you call,
at 3 in the morning,
because your car broke down,
I will be there.
The one,
who will always be there for her friends,
for her family,
for anybody in the universe,
even in the darkest hours,
where it feels like,
the sun will never reach their shadows.
I just wish they knew that.

I am the one,
who cries,
some place where noone can see me.
I try to act tough,
like nothing you say can hurt me,
but in reality,
I am only like that,
because of my friends.
I only act like that,
because of my family.
I don’t want them to worry,
over a small bump like myself.
They don’t need to get worked up,
for something as stupid as what happened to me.

I am nothing,
but a head full of dark thoughts,
in which I express through my writings,
my drawings,
and my music.
I am something,
but I don’t know what.

I am a family girl,
you mess with my family,
my fist will make an appearance,
against your face.
My family is my lifeline,
you take them away,
you might as well kill me too.
My family supports me,
in everything I do,
from writing a story,
to participating in activities.

I am the one,
who if you told to,
speak my mind,
I will.
I will not sugar coat,
anything, unless I have too.
If you want the brutal truth,
you’re going to get,
what you ask for.

This is me.
This is who I am.
You will never change,
the person I am today.
I’ve been through more,
than other students have.
From 
dealing with someone passing away,
or they committed suicide.
From a biological father who doesn’t care about my brother and I,
to a family who loves us more than he ever will,
including my step-dad.
Now I am not saying,
that I am one of the unlucky ones.
And I am not saying,
that a lot of other students haven’t went through,
much worse situations.
I’m just saying,
that I too went through tough times as well.

This is me,
this is who I am,
and you will not change me.
I am who I am,
and that’s it.
