truth is,
she is like the rest.
her face isn't much of a
breathtaking sight,
her laugh is not a pretty sound
and her walk does not
bring people to their knees.

but it is the things that do make
her different, that really count
the way her soul is
quiet but still seems
to be the loudest,
the way her thought are messy
yet are so beautifully
strung together.

it is the uniqueness of her
mind and soul
that she fails to believe in
because other people do not.
