I have felt like a lone wolf since I was 12 when I wrote this
Roaming around freely,
being caught in traps,
alone at day,
and still alone at night.

I fight my way through problems.
No one pack will fully accept me,
there's always someone behind me,
nipping at my heels every chance they get.

I howl loudly at the moon,
yet no one hears me.
I roam around freely waiting for someone to notice me.
NO ONE DOES!!!!

The boy wolves strut around proudly.
I notice them with every step.
They don't notice me as a girl,
I am one of their buddies.

My coat has bare patches,
where I have been attacked.
I am not as beautiful as everyone else,
but I still am important and I have abilities.
SOMEONE NOTICE ME!!!

I am different from my family.
When my sisters are around
people
STOP
STARE
NOTICE.
When I am around,
people do NOTHING!!!

I am looked down upon
by most people.
Like they are better than me.
I look away disgusted and saddened by the thought.

I cherish every friend I make.
If anyone hurts them,
I will come prepared,
Lips curled,
Teeth bared,
letting myself go free.

I am depressed.
Sometimes not satisfied about anything,
but I will always cover it up.
No one will ever be able to find the true me.

I have been hurt too many times in my life.
I use laughter to cheer and enlighten people,
their smiles and laughter brings happiness to me,
and makes me feel wonderful.

People judge me by my looks.
There's more to me than just looks...
THERE'S ME!!!!

I will continue on my own,
howling loudly until someone notices me,
until I am appreciated and not judged by all.
