You Have A Place Somewhere Poem by Christian Rivera

You aren't the pick of the litter
Because you wear fingernail glitter
You get pushed around and called silly names
Always chosen last before every game

But you hold a place somewhere
Deep inside my heart
You put a spell on me
Right from the start

Sometimes people stop to check out your hair
They say nice things hollow and bare
The tight worn pants get a million different stares
Some people say rude comments and some don't really care

But you'll always have a place in me
Someplace warm and cozy
A special little spot in my memory
Filled with all the hugs and kisses I keep

So don't let the ignorance break your heart
You have a place in my arms
Together you and I will go far
Together and bright as the stars
