A poem about a real person.

I’ll never be on the cover of some glamour magazine,

I’ll never wear some crown and be a beauty queen.

There are days I love like hell,

There are days I show my age,

But in my heart where it counts I’m beautiful all the same.

I might not save the world,

I’ll never cure some deadly disease,

Won’t fly above the trees,

But I’ll do my best to change the world a little each day.

I’ll do my best to make a difference,

Touch the heart of someone as much as I can,

Make a mark on the world where it counts.

I know many who will try to put me down,

Many who would love to see me fall,

But I know who I am and that’s where it counts.
