She Was/She Is (Poem)

She was
The outcast
The one chosen
Last.
They judged her
For the things she couldn’t change
Nor did she want to
She wore
Who she was
Like a badge of honor
And Yes
I guess it was.
She was the
Head always buried
In a book
Escaping taunts
And teases
In far off lands
In long ago places.
She was
The girl they tried
To break and beat
With words
Like weapons.
She is
The CEO of
A Fortune 500.
She is
The bestselling novelist
Your youngest daughter
Always reads.
She is
The teacher
For those with Special Needs!
