I'm No Gandhi


I’m no Gandhi

Newton

or Voltaire

I’m not brave

or important

I’m not pretty

Good

or sincere

I’m sarcastic

and mean

I’m no hero

I am just a girl

A small insignificant

girl

 

I am trying

to be

good

pretty

and sincere

I am afraid

of everything

but someday

I will be brave

I will become

someone's hero

I will become

important
