I am many things to many people

I am the girl next door

The one who your parents make you wave to when tending the lawn, out of a respect of kindness

I am the nerd

The girl who always has her nose stuck in a 700 page book, finishing it in a day or less

I am the fighter

The one who will argue till she is out of breath because I don’t give in

I am the helper

The girl who always tries to better peoples lives only to find out she has wrecked them even more

I am ugly

The one who will never be as pretty as “her” in your eyes

I am a nobody

I am the girl who has many friends but is never considered popular

I am kind

The one who takes a person no one likes and tries to turn there lives into something more than rejection

I am strong

The girl who never cries, despite how much she hurts inside

I am a mother

The one who has taken care of her little brother and sister since she was nine, never once complaining

I am a whore

The girl who wouldn’t put out so you spread awful rumors about her

I am a friend

The one who will never be more than anything else because I am more like ‘one of the guys’

I am many things to many people

And I try my hardest to make people like and accept me for who I am

But to you…..I will never be good enough

To you….I am second best, just another face in the crowd telling me I am nothing…worthless…

And you know what?

……..You just might be right…..
