This quote is one I made up.....<br /> &quot;You can&#039;t climb a mountian without a harness.&quot; It means that you can&#039;t go where you want to get in life without the help of your friends or family.

So I sit here and wait for the day,
I can be seen in my own special way.
Just myself, how I should be;
Not at all prefect- just perfectly me.

I sit in class with my head held high.
I will not be the one who starts to cry.
I may not be blonde, beautiful, or small.
I don't spend my life at the mall.

I speak for all the girls like me,
Stop teasing us, leave us be!
If you don't, we will fight back.
We have hearts, which all of you lack.

© Amy Z., Edmond, OK

* I was crying after school one day so I wrote this. If you are blonde I'm sorry. I didn't write this poem to offend anyone. I wrote what I felt and that's what I was feeling!*

&quot;Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind.&quot;
