You

always stood out in the middle of the crowd with no doubt in my mind that you could overcome so much.

I admire you for always standing your ground even when the people you were standing up to didn’t deserve your patience or time.

You always seemed to be able to sense what was to come and you never gave up on the things you knew would carry you to the end.

Sometimes you said you didn’t like all the attention for it just was annoying when the wrong crowd would look at you and judge you without knowing who you were on the inside.

You are beautiful and unique and even though the world can see that they sometimes forget that you are so much more than that, if only they took the time to get to know you.
