I’m not short.
And I’m not tall.
I’m somewhere between.
I’m not pretty.
I’m not ugly.
I go along unseen.
I’m not skinny.
I’m not fat.
I’m just a normal girl.
And all of you
who stand out so –
I’ve given you the world.

I wanted to give a nod to the ordinary people, because without them, we wouldn't have spectacular people.
