No Ordinary Girl
By Utena Tenjou
I am no ordinary girl. I find myself by no ordinary means.
I look to you for pieces of me. I find nothing! Nothing!
I am no ordinary girl. I find myself quite stronger every day. I look to you and see myself;
Then shake my head and turn away.
I swear I'll find my strength! That most elusive strength that seems to be so close. Yet never is it close.
Come look at my face. I am no normal girl. I've been to the edge of my world, and that's a lot to say.
I've planned my future out. I'll make something of myself. You seem surprised to hear me say that.
I've found the blackness in me! It eats at my soul. But I think I know how to stop it. And that's a lot to say.
Your face seems so familiar… your eyes are oh so sad! My heart is stronger than yours, much stronger than a mans.
I am no ordinary girl.
Author's note: Um, I didn't right this with Utena in mind, I wrote it about myself. But it really matches Utena too. We are a lot alike. Thanks for reading my weirdo poem. It is actually a song. I'm no good at poetry, but I try. Anyway. Let me know what you think
