The Earth Lays on its Axis
The Earth lays on its axis,
 Colors of blue and green blend together.
 People of all different cultures
 Come together and celebrate
 The birth of a new life.
 Dogs howl in unison,
 While people cheer.
 Everybody is happy  
 At that exact moment.
 One girl is off by herself
 Wondering why everyone
 Is happy.
 She is not happy,
 She is angry.
 No one pays attention
 To her. 
 She is all by herself in this world.
 “Why does nobody
 Love me?” She asks.
 “Because you are different;
 Different than everyone 
 Else.  No one can ever
 Love a freak.”
 She shakes her head
 And tells the voice 
 That it isn’t true. 
 “No, the others are
 Just busy.
 When they’re done
 Talking they’ll come over.”
 Even she didn’t believe
 The words that came
 Out of her own mouth.
 The other voice was right,
 I am a freak,
 No one will ever
 Love me.
 I am different,
 And all alone 
 In this horrid place.
 But I will survive.
 I will be a warrior.
