I am the girl in the back

I am the girl that can make anyone smile 

I am the girl that never misses school and never acts out 

I am the girl with many friends 

Yet I am the same girl who cries herself to sleep at night 

I am the girl who loves to help others but refuses to get help myself 

I am the girl who cares more about her friends then about herself 

I am a victim of society

The same society who says beauty is determined by weight and looks 

The same society who teaches women that no guy will love them unless they dress skankish

I am a voice 

A voice wanting to be heard
