This Is For The Girl

You are not alone.

This Is For The Girl
Beth Colt

This is a poem I wrote while I was in high school, I read it at a talent show and I wanted to share it with my Odyssey audience.

This is for the girl,

Who walks into a room,

Feeling judged by everyone,

But never is that true.

This is for the girl,

That dresses nice everyday,

Hoping some boy sees her walk by,

But has never been on a date.

This is for the girl,

That sits all alone in class,

Always ignored by everyone,

But answers all the questions asked.

This is for the girl,

That wears her heart out on her sleeve,

Always dating who she thinks is her true love,

But he only wants one thing.

This is for the girl,

That isn't very slim,

Who starves herself,

Just to fit in.

This is for the girl,

That loves video games and plays with GIJOs,

Gets along better with boys,

But deep inside feels like a rose.

This is for the girl,

That feels like nobody is ever there,

Who begs for attention,

But no one seems to care.

This is for the girl,

that wished upon a star,

Asking for a bright future,

But never really went that far.

This is for the girl,

That feels as if no one will understand,

God is right by your side,

Always holding your hand.

This is for the girl,

That always feels sadness consume,

I hope this may cheer you up,

Because I wrote this just for you.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
