The Ballad Of The Girl From Outer Space

Yet another poem I wanted to share.

The Ballad Of The Girl From Outer Space
Tumblr

I once met a girl at the age of eighteen,

She was the most stellar gal I ever did seen.

The moment I saw her, I knew I would never be the same.

I felt I had heard the universe screaming my name.

Her feet were bare, her hair was grey,

Her skin matched the color of the milky way.

Her eyes were as big as Saturn, her lips were as red as mars.

The freckles that dotted her cheeks reminded me of the stars.

She told me that life among planets was all she´s ever known

And that running with the comets was her only true home.

She cried ¨Help me, I´m ready to leave this place

I need you to take me back to outer space.¨

So she took my hand and to the cosmos we sped

¨I can never go back.¨ I looked to her and said.

And I never did come home, but for all that it´s worth

I´ll give my regards to mother Earth.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
