Molly - I Will Defend


I Will Defend...

Him. The one with no filter

Her. The one with no friends

Him. The one who’s intelligent

Her. The one with confidence

Him. The one who doesn’t care

Her. The one who is misunderstood

Him. The one who is gossiped about

You. The one who has helped me become this way

Molly, age 15
