Poetry
They call her the "fat pig." While her sister is praised, adored, and crowned in perfection, she's the shadow. The forgotten one. Acne-covered. Mid-height. Made to wear matching outfits like she's a sidekick in her own life. Her sister gets the heirlooms, the love, the spotlight. She gets the silence. The comparisons. The shame. But still-she smiles. Not because she's okay. But because no one would care if she didn't. This is a 2-3 page poetic journey into the mind of a girl who's tired of being compared. A girl who doesn't scream or cry-just endures. A story written in verses that bleed honesty, pain, and quiet strength. If you've ever felt like second best... like invisible... like you were never enough- This poem is for you.

Claire Shaw wants to disappear. Her entire life she's been judged and ridiculed for the fact that she was born intersex, meaning she's a chick with a dick. And people don't like that. Especially the boys at her school. And while she's used to looks, the comments and even the physical violence, she's not used to the tornado that is Riley Green, the sister of her biggest bully. Riley Green is everything Claire isn't. Loud, popular, out and proud. She makes herself heard, stands up to the bullies and loves her friends with a passion and she goes after what she wants. And what she wants is Claire. When the girls are paired up to do a summer art project, Riley uses it as the perfect excuse to be near the girl everyone hates. And while Claire doesn't trust the sister of her bully, she can't help but to find herself looking forward to seeing her everyday. As the summer drags on, can the girl who is hated by everyone find love with the one person she shouldn't?
