Look at her
look at who she is
and who she can become

even if what she wants to become is unrealistic
and who she is, is a nerd loser or some other hurtful word
which in some sadistic way provides them joy
while she feels pain

look at her
scratch that
don't look at her
but rather look into her soul

because within all that is a person
a person who has a voice 
but who's told to only speak when spoken to 
but is never spoken to
and a person who lives everyday wanting to better herself
because this cruel world tells her
she's not beautiful or good enough
and sad as it may be she believes them.

But they don't know
they don't know that what they did
by pushing her down will eventually
make her stronger

and like an eagle she will soar above them all
graceful, majestic and proud
and they merely vultures
feeding on the grace  
which she left for them
feeding on her riches
and feeding on her spoils

and she allows them to do so because
she is and has always been a soaring eagle
strong and proud
